What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Shyft Group is recalling certain 2020 Fleet Vehicles-Utilimaster Metris vehicles. The payload capacity shown on the Tire and Loading Information label may be higher than the actual payload capacity of the vehicle.

The risk

Overloading of the tires may increase the risk of tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Shyft Group will notify owners and will inspect the vehicles and if the payload values are incorrect, the label will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began September 2, 2020. Owners can contact Shyft Group customer service at 1-800-582-3454. Shyft Group's number for this recall is 20-06.

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.
