Problem Universal Trailer Cargo Group, Inc. (UTC Group) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Haulmark and Wells Cargo Aluminum Snowmobile trailers, models HAS85X16DT2, HAS85X20DT2, HAS85X22DT2, HAS85X24DT2, WAS85X1622, WAS85X2022 and WAS85X2422, manufactured June 18, 2015, to September 23, 2016. Cross winds may result in the trailers tipping or lifting, possibly causing the couplers to tear. Risk If the coupler tears, the trailer can separate from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix UTC Group will notify owners, and dealers will attach a reinforcement plate assembly and extra coupler tube to each trailer, free of charge. The recall began on October 26, 2016. Owners may contact UTC Group customer service at 1-574-264-9661. UTC Group's number for this recall is ID119915.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. ID119915 is the number Haulmark assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 16V709000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
