What this means for you

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (tow bar separation) that can lead to a crash, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe rating.
