A NEW RV TRAILER WAS OBSERVED TO HAVE A PLACARD THAT STATES 7,000# GAWR WHILE IT IDENTIFIES THE TIRE SIZE AS A ST235/80R16(E) WITH THE INFLATION TO BE 80 PSI. THIS TIRE IS RATED FOR A MAXIMUM LOAD OF 3,420# AT 80 PSI.....UPDATED 03/21/12 *BF THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY DUTCHMEN APPEARS TO VIOLATE 49 CFR PART 571.120 WHICH IN S5.1.2 STATES "...THE SUM OF THE MAXIMUM LOAD RATINGS OF THE TIRES FITTED TO AN AXLE SHALL BE NOT LESS THAN THE GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR) OF THE AXLE SYSTEM AS SPECIFIED ON THE VEHICLES CERTIFICATION LABEL REQUIRED BY 49 CFR PART 567.." IN FEDERAL REGISTER: DECEMBER 4, 2007 (VOLUME 72, NUMBER 232)] [RULES AND REGULATIONS] [PAGE 68441-68466], DOT IDENTIFIED THAT THE CARGO CAPACITY WAS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE BUYING DECISION. REPLACING THE LABEL WITH A LOWER GAWR WOULD MEET THE REQUIREMENTS BUT IN THE CASE OF CURRENT OWNERS IT WOULD MEAN THEY PURCHASED THE TRAILER WITH CERTAIN EXPECTATIONS OF LOAD CAPACITY BASED ON THE STATED 7,000# GAWR FOR EACH AXLE, BUT NOW WOULD DISCOVER THE TRAILER MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CARRY THEIR NORMAL LOAD. I THEREFORE REQUEST THAT IN ADDITION TO REPLACEMENT OF A PROPER PLACARD THERE BE SOME PHYSICAL REMEDY PROVIDED TO MAKE THE CURRENT OWNERS WHOLE. I CAN PROVIDE A COPY OF THE PHOTOGRAPH OF THE SUBJECT PLACARD. *TR UPDATED 05/10/12
