What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (wheel separation) that increases the risk of a crash, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

EZ Loader Adjustable Boat Trailer, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 boat trailers equipped with Carlisle Transportation Products-brand 15X6" and 16X6" CrossTrax Series trailer wheels. The lips of these affected wheels are susceptible to cracking and separation.

If a separation occurs, the trailer tire may rapidly lose air pressure, which increases the risk of a crash. The manufacturer has not yet provided a remedy plan or a notification schedule.

Owners may contact EZ Loader at 1-509-489-0181 for more information. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
