- The defect
- Tracker Marine, LLC (Tracker) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Ranger Trail RT198PP and RT198PPB trailers. An incorrect-size safety cable was installed, which is under-rated for the size of the trailer.
- What it can cause
- The safety cable may not prevent trailer detachment in the event the coupler fails, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the safety cable, free of charge. Owners may contact Tracker customer service at 1-417-873-4555. Tracker's number for this recall is TS-0039.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 145 vehicles this is a small campaign: 65% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2021 to 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2021, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Tracker Marine, LLC with NHTSA on July 21, 2021 as campaign 21V553000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
