Plain-English summary

KZRV, L.P. is recalling certain 2021 Connect travel trailers. The defect involves the trailer tongue weight being too low, which may not apply enough downward force to the hitch of the tow vehicle. This condition can cause the trailer to be unstable at highway speeds.

An unstable trailer can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. The recall affects 115 units of the 2021 KZRV Connect model.

Dealers will increase the tongue weight by adding additional weight to the tongue or by moving the axles, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 12, 2021.
