What is wrong
Mickey Truck Bodies, Inc. (Mickey Truck) is recalling certain 2017 Freightliner M2, M2-106, International 4300, and 2018 Peterbilt 220 vehicles equipped with certain model lift gates that contain a license plate kit with part number 298872-01. The light kit does not properly illuminate the license plate, shining rearward, instead of downward as intended.
What can happen
The improper lighting may confuse other drivers on the road, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will provide a replacement license plate kit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 10, 2021. Owners may contact Mickey Truck customer service at 1-336-888-2291.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
