The following safety recall was issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

  • Hyundai Translead is recalling certain 2018-2019 dry van trailers. The beam clip of the air hose spring assembly may detach from the beam allowing the air hoses to drag on the ground. An air hose that drags on the ground may leak air, possibly increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 34,960 vehicles are affected by this recall.
  • Paccar is recalling certain 2020 Peterbilt 579 vehicles equipped with a sleeper box. The conspicuity tape may have been installed in the incorrect location, affecting the vehicle’s visibility to other drivers on the road. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment.” Reduced visibility increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 248 vehicles are affected by this recall.
