The defect
Tracker Marine, LLC (Tracker) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Ranger Trail RT198PP and RT198PPB trailers. An incorrect-size safety cable was installed, which is under-rated for the size of the trailer.
The risk
The safety cable may not prevent trailer detachment in the event the coupler fails, increasing the risk of a crash.
