Knapheide is recalling certain models of the 2006 through 2008 Pro series truck beds equipped with an ICC bumper which included a provision for a ball hitch. There may be insufficient weld attaching the hitch channel to the supporting structure.
This could result in bending of the hitch channel or the hitch could be pulled off the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Knapheide will offer two remedies to its customers: (1) for those customers who do not use the hitch, the hitch will be removed from the truck bed and replaced with an ICC bumper; or (2) for those customers who need a hitch, a reciever hitch assembly will be added to the existing hitch aseembly and all suspect weld joints will be welded. Owners may contact Knapheide at 1-877-473-5763.
