The trailer license plate mounting is too low to accommodate a license plate. The tag must be mounted off to the side and so it does not have illumination. I was pulled over and given a warning by the police but there is no way to mount the tag without major changes to the trailer. This is on all production trailers from the factory. This results in tags missing from being torn off or low visibility to tags on a trailer due to no lighting. Trailer manufacturers are required to build trailers to have a lighted license plate mount.
Big Tex Trailer Manufacturing, Inc. (Big Tex Trailer) is recalling certain 2024 trailers with defective Goodride ST 200 tires. Please see the recall report for a complete list of trailer models. The sidewall of the tires may experience bubbling and separate, causing a loss of tire pressure. As such, these trailers fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 119, "New Pneumatic Tires-Other Than Passenger Cars."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A loss of tire pressure increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect and replace the tires as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 12, 2024. Owners may contact Big Tex Trailer customer service at 1-800-594-5637.
