Product Description & Identification

Reason / Defects: The bolts that secure the hitch receiver to the tow bar, may have a different thread to the nuts in the tow bar and may loosen. On the Amarok application, the bolts may “bottom out” before fully tightening. Hazards: If the towbar detaches from the vehicle while towing, this could cause the trailer to separate from the towing vehicle. This could increase the risk of an accident causing serious injury or death. What to do: Consumers should not tow a trailer with the product affected by this recall. Take the vehicle to the place where the product was purchased and installed to arrange for an inspection. The product will be repaired, or if necessary replaced or refunded.
