Supreme Curtainside Trucks Recalled for Limited Visibility Clearance Lights

Supreme is recalling 2009-2018 Curtainside trucks because intermediate clearance lights may have limited visibility, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall addresses a defect that increases the risk of a crash due to reduced visibility, which fits the rubric for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Supreme Corporation is recalling certain 2009-2018 Supreme Curtainside trucks. The recall involves 440 vehicles that have intermediate clearance lights on the angled roof rail bracket. These lights may have limited visibility, which reduces the vehicle's visibility to other drivers and fails to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108.

Reduced visibility can increase the risk of a crash. Supreme will notify owners, and dealers will replace the 30-degree clearance lights with 45-degree clearance lights free of charge. The recall began on October 26, 2018.

Owners may contact Supreme customer service at 1-844-352-4921. They may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.safercar.gov.
