What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

CERTAIN TRAVEL AND FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS HAVE INCORRECT INFORMATION ON THE FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION TAG AND THE TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABEL.

The risk

ON THE TRAVEL TRAILERS, THE GVWR AND THE AXLE RATING IS HIGHER THAN THE ACTUAL RATINGS FOR THE AXLES INSTALLED. LOADING THE VEHICLE BEYOND THE GVWR COULD RESULT IN POOR VEHICLE HANDLING AND INCREASED RISK OF PROPERTY AND A VEHICLE CRASH. ON THE FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS, THE TIRE LOAD RANGE AND MAXIMUM INFLATION DATA ON THE TAG IS INCORRECT. OVER-INFLATING A TIRE COULD LEAD TO PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE.

The remedy

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION LABELS AND THE TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABELS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JUNE 26, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT KEYSTONE AT 1-866-425-4369.

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.
