Jerr-Dan Recalls XLP Carrier Kits Due to Incorrect Tail Light Installation
Jerr-Dan is recalling XLP Carrier kits because reverse and brake light assemblies may be installed incorrectly, reducing vehicle visibility and increasing crash risk.
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
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 structural vehicle defect (incorrect lighting installation) that increases the risk of a crash, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Jerr-Dan Corporation is recalling certain XLP Carrier kits. The reverse and brake light assemblies may have been installed in the wrong location with the incorrect color or number of lights. As a result, the carriers fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment."
Inadequate rear lighting can reduce vehicle visibility or fail to alert other drivers when the vehicle is braking, turning, or reversing, increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will inspect and repair the carrier, free of charge. Owners may contact Jerr-Dan customer service at 1-800-926-9666.
