Plain-English summary
Harbor Freight Tools (HFT) is recalling certain Kenway 12V LED Towing Light Kits (part number 64282) and 12V Submersible Lights (part number 64274). The affected units were manufactured between July 1, 2019, and December 22, 2019. The defect involves the lights potentially failing to illuminate properly, which means they do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108 regarding lamps and reflective devices.
Improper illumination from these towing lights can reduce the visibility of trailers to other drivers, thereby increasing the risk of a crash. The recall affects approximately 3,832 units. Owners who purchased these lights prior to November 2020 are advised to check the last six digits of the serial code to verify if their unit is affected: Model 64282 should have serial codes ending in 462019 or 522019, and Model 64274 should have serial codes ending in 272019.
HFT will replace the affected light kits free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on August 30, 2026. Owners may contact HFT customer service at 1-800-444-3353 for more information.
