What the record says

Product
DITCH WITCH VT12 (2022) - Recall 22V576000
Reason
Charles Machine Works, Inc. is recalling certain 2020-2022 Ditch Witch VT24, VT12, VT14, and 2022 VT14MV trailers. The vehicle certification label does not have the correct Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, "Wheels and rims - other than passenger cars." Incorrect GAWR information may cause the vehicle to become overloaded and result in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
