The problem
Certain travel trailers fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, 'Tire selection and rims.' The federal identification label and the tire loading information placard has the incorrect tire inflation listed.
The risk
Misprinted labels could lead to failure to follow proper vehicle loading specifications or tire inflation recommendation which could result in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Owners will be provided with new tire information placards and installation instructions. At the customer's option, a dealer can perform the installation for them. The recall began on april 28, 2006. Owners may contact jayco at 574-825-0608.
