What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

JAYCO IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 EAGLE SUPERLITE FIFTH-WHEELS MANUFACTURED FROM NOVEMBER 15, 2010, THROUGH FEBRUARY 9, 2011. DUE TO A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR, THE SIZE OF THE TIRE AS INDICATED ON THE FEDERAL ID LABEL IS INCORRECTLY IDENTIFIED. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS."

The risk

A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO SELECTION OF AN IMPROPERLY SIZED REPLACEMENT TIRE.

The remedy

OWNERS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH CORRECTED LABELS FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING MARCH 2011. OWNERS MAY CONTACT JAYCO AT 1-574-825-0608.

Notes

OWNERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO <A HREF=HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV>HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV</A> .

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.
