Heartland Trailer Mfg. (Heartland) is recalling certain model year 2016 18' Carhauler dovetail trailers manufactured December 1, 2015, to April 30, 2016. The affected trailers have clearance lights that are not visible from the rear of the trailer. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Assoc. Equipment." Without visible clearance lights, the trailer is at an increased risk of a crash.
