The defect
Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Cyclone and 2020-2021 Bighorn Traveler, and Elkridge recreational trailers. Due to insufficient bracing, the front landing legs may buckle and collapse while the trailer is parked.
The risk
If the landing legs buckle, the trailer will drop unexpectedly, increasing the risk of property damage, personal injury or death.
