Kestrel Take

A compact single-axle enclosed cargo trailer — Pace American is a widely available, decent-value brand for small covered hauling and moves. Same enclosed-trailer inspection: roof/seam leaks and floor rot, bearings, tire age, and doors. A dry, well-maintained Pace American is a practical, affordable covered hauler; verify the roof, floor, and running gear and it'll serve for years.

What we checked

Not checked against public records

Towable trailers are in NHTSA’s database and we intend to use it. We have not switched it on yet because recall notices name sub-brands and floorplans rather than the model we key on, and folding them in carelessly would put another trailer’s recall on this page. What follows is our own write-up, and it has not been reconciled against an official record. Treat it as a starting point, not a verdict.
