What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. (Gulf Stream) is recalling certain 2018 Gulf Stream Coach 19FMB Breeze and Geo recreational trailers. The information on the Federal label lists an incorrect number of axles on the trailer. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

The risk

The information regarding the trailer's gross axle weight rating (GAWR) for the front axle, tire, rim size and recommended tire pressure are correct, but there is only one axle, not two.

The remedy

Gulf Stream will notify the affected owner and dealers, and will send a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on December 15, 2017. Owners may contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787. Gulf Stream's number for this recall is 20171125.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

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.
