Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

Open investigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

95 units potentially affected
The defect: CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 110, 'TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS.' THE FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION LABELS CONTAINS INCORRECT INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIM SIZE AND TIRE INFLATION RATING AS WELL AS AN INCORRECT RATING FOR THE GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING (GVWR) AND FRONT GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR).
The risk: THIS MISPRINT COULD LEAD TO AN INCORRECT RIM BEING PLACED ON THE UNIT THAT WOULD NOT BE RATED FOR THE GAWR, IN ADDITION TO OVERLOADING THE UNIT AND OVER-INFLATING THE TIRES. DRIVING WITH OVER-INFLATED TIRES CAN CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO PREMATURE TIRE FAILURE THAT COULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy: OWNERS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH A CORRECTED FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION LABEL AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. IF AN OWNER WISHES, A DEALER CAN PLACE THE LABEL ON FOR THEM. THE RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 30, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT MONACO AT 1-800-685-6545.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
