Reported risk: ***This notice is provided for information purposes only as these products are not regulated under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.*** On certain Master Lock Tri-Ball Mounts (model 2948AT), the 6 cm (2 5/16 inch) ball may not meet the 4,535 kg (10,000 lb) SAE rating and, as a result, the weld at the base of the ball could fail. A towed unit separating from the towing vehicle could strike another vehicle, stationary object, or bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Owners should immediately stop using the Tri-Ball Mount and contact Master Lock at 1-800-464-2088 for further information.
