Alliance RV Recalls 2023-2024 Paradigm Travel Trailers Due to Brake Wiring Defect

Alliance RV is recalling 2023-2024 Paradigm travel trailers because an incorrectly wired breakaway switch may prevent emergency brakes from activating if the trailer detaches.

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 (electrical wiring for safety brakes) that increases the risk of a crash if the trailer detaches, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Alliance RV, LLC is recalling certain 2023-2024 Paradigm 295MK, 310RL, 340RL, 370FB, 382RK, 385FL, 390MP, and 395DS travel trailers. The recall involves a defect in the electrical system where the breakaway switch is incorrectly wired.

This wiring error may prevent the breakaway switch and trailer brakes from activating when needed. Specifically, if the trailer becomes detached from the towing vehicle, the emergency trailer brake may fail to engage, increasing the risk of a crash.
