Supreme Recall 18V541000: Exterior Lighting
NHTSA recall 18V541000 · announced August 16, 2018 · filed by Supreme Corporation · 440 units affected
The problem
Supreme Corporation (Supreme) is recalling certain 2009-2018 Supreme Curtainside trucks. These trucks have intermediate clearance lights on the angled roof rail bracket, that may have limited visibility, reducing the vehicle's visibility to other drivers. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
Reduced visibility can increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
Supreme will notify owners, and dealers will replace the 30 degree clearance lights with 45 degree clearance lights, free of charge. The recall began October 26, 2018. Owners may contact Supreme customer service at 1-844-352-4921.
