The problem
On certain motor homes, the psi recorded on the federal certification label is incorrect. The initial label shows psi as 90 lbs front and 100 rear. The correct information should be a psi of 105 front and 115 rear.
The risk
These vehicles do not comply with the regulations.
The fix
Dealers will install a corrected label on these motor homes. Owner notification began on april 28, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free label within a reasonable time should contact monaco at 1-877-466-8226.
