Plain-English summary

Starcraft RV, Inc. is recalling certain 2011 model year Travel Star travel trailers. These vehicles were manufactured between May 5, 2010, and August 12, 2010. The recall affects trailers that are missing the intermediate side marker light.

A missing required lighting item may reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
