For the 2016 Futura LOW Loader. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your Futura been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Futura dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Summary
Futura Trailers Ltd (Futura) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Low Loader trailers. The left and right drawbars may disconnect from the front rail of the trailer chassis allowing the draw bars to swing and sever the trailer brake and light wires. 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," and number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."
Consequence
Severed brake and/or light wiring can cause the brakes or brake lights to fail, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Futura will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional aluminum angle bracket to the junction of the left and right draw-bar, free of charge. The recall began on May 30, 2018. Owners may contact Futura customer service at 1-855-744-3877.
