Cargo Express and others Recall 16V863000: Structure, Body, Door, Hinge And Attachments

NHTSA recall 16V863000 · announced November 30, 2016 · filed by Lgs Industries Inc · 34 units affected

The problem

LGS Industries Inc (LGS) is recalling certain model year 2017 Look, Pace, and Cargo Express cargo trailers manufactured October 24, 2016, to November 8, 2016. Due to insufficient welds, the bracket that attaches the torsion spring cable to the ramp door could detach from the ramp door.

The risk

If the bracket detaches, the door can fall open, creating a crushing hazard or, if the door is completely open, the cable and bracket could act as a projectile, possibly causing personal injury.

What to do

LGS will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the cable brackets, repairing them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on January 17, 2017. Owners may contact LGS customer service at 1-877-475-5665.
