| Defect Summary | Certain reinke aluminum toolbox brackets, p/nos. 223021 and 223022, sold as aftermarket equipment for use on reinke trailers. during manufacture, the bend radius of the brackets was too small resulting in brackets with greatly reduced fatigue life. small cracks may develop along the bend radius lines of the brackets if installed as part of the toolbox mounting system. the cracks may further develop and the brackets may break causing the toolbox to separate from the trailer. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | If the toolbox separates from the trailer while the trailer is in motion, vehicles on the road are at risk of collision with the toolbox and its contents and a vehicle crash could occur without warning. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Reinke will notify its affected customers and reinforce the brackets with aluminum gussets that will be welded on each side of each bracket free of charge. the recall began july 28, 2005. owners may contact reinke toll-free at 877-762-1001. | |||||||||||||||
