Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC): Structure › Critical Fasteners
Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) reported this defect to federal regulators on Nov 19, 2021 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 461. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain 2021 Quest and Raven trailers equipped with a spring-assist ramp door assembly. The fastener used to secure the spring-assist ramp door cables may be the incorrect type and over-tightened, which could cause the cable bushings to fail.
The risk
Cable bushing failure may cause the cables to retract forcefully, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy
ATC will supply new materials and work instructions to replace the existing ramp door cable fastener assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 14, 2022. Owners may contact ATC customer service at 1-877-441-2440, ext. 342.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 21V902000.
