Recall campaignsA 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.

20V096000

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS; TIRES

Feb 20, 2020
35 units potentially affected
The defect: SMC Trailers is recalling certain 2019-2020 Laramie trailers. The Federal Placard indicates the incorrect tire PSI, which may result in the tires being overinflated. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
The risk: Tires inflated to the limit provided on the label could fail, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy: SMC Trailers will notify owners, and dealers will provide new placards with the correct PSI listed, free of charge. The recall began March 13, 2020. Owners may contact SMC Trailers customer service at 1-574-966-5598.

What a recall is

Safety recall
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.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
