Defect. Columbia Northwest, Inc. (Columbia Northwest) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Somerset Chesapeake and Somerset Newport recreational trailers. A weld on the front A-frame bars may fail, possibly allowing the front of the trailer to drop while being towed.

Risk. If the front of the trailer drops while being towed, it may contact the road, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Columbia Northwest will notify owners and dealers will install steel supports welded to the joints identified on the front of the frame, free of charge. The recall began June 18, 2018. Owners may contact Columbia Northwest customer service at 1-724-237-5227.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
