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 involves a risk-of-harm product where the defect increases the risk of a crash, but no injuries or fatalities have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2019 Jayco Jay Flight travel trailers. The recall addresses a defect where the turn signal and brake lights were wired incorrectly. This wiring error causes the lights to work intermittently, preventing other drivers from knowing the intentions of the vehicle. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

If the rear turn signals and brake lights do not operate as intended, other drivers will not be properly notified of stopping or turning, which increases the risk of a crash. The source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities associated with this defect.

Dealers will correctly wire the rear turn signals and brake lights to the 7-way trailer cord free of charge. The recall began on October 15, 2018. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-517-9137 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
