Abstract: An auxiliary power device includes a housing, a motor supported by the housing, and a wheel engaged with the motor. The wheel has a rotational axis and a spindle on the rotational axis. The housing defines a track adjustably supporting the spindle of the wheel. The adjustability of the spindle supported by the track in the housing allows for the wheel to adjust relative to the housing and allows the auxiliary power device to be used on a variety of vehicles.

Abstract: A reversible load floor for a vehicle includes a first side defining a planar surface. The reversible load floor also includes a second side disposed opposite of the first side. The second side includes a container, which extends from the second side along a vertical axis at a center of a spare tire such that, in a first position, the first side is accessible via a cargo compartment and the container is disposed over the spare tire, and, in a second position, the first side extends across a top of the spare tire and the container is accessible via the cargo compartment.

Abstract: A protective cover system for a motor vehicle includes a first roller, a first cover wound onto the first roller, a second roller and a second cover wound onto the second roller. The protective cover system also includes a control module for displacing the covers between stowed and deployed positions covering one or both of the motor vehicle bumper and an interior cargo floor of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle includes trim panel walls defining a cargo compartment. At least one trim panel wall has an indented portion defining a recess. A reaching aid is disposed within the recess in a stored configuration, and is selectively removable from the recess.

Abstract: A locator pin is provided for a plastic component. The locator includes a main rib, a first secondary rib intersecting the main rib at a first intersection and a second secondary rib intersecting the main rib at a second intersection. The first and second intersections are offset from each other. A plastic component incorporating the locator pin, a plastic component assembly incorporating that plastic component and a method of reducing sink marks in an injection molded plastic component are also provided.
