Black Tie Products (Black Tie) is recalling certain 2020-2021 ADA Drop OPTIMUM20 trailers. The certification label has the incorrect tire and wheel rim information, and an incorrect Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). As such, these trailers fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 110, "Tire Selection and Rims", and 567, "Certification."
Consequence
Incorrect tire/rim and GAWR information may cause the trailer to be overloaded, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
A new certification label will be mailed to owners, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 27, 2021. Owners may contact Black Tie customer service at 1-574-277-3234.
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.
