The problem
Jayco is recalling certain model year 2011 jay feather select travel trailers, series x213 manufactured from may 17, 2010 through august 16, 2010 for failing to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, "Tire selection and rims." The federal id label and the tire and loading information label have an incorrect tire pressure.
The risk
A misprinted label could lead to improper vehicle loading specifications or tire inflation which could result in a tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Jayco will mail to consumers the corrected labels or the customer will have the option for dealers to install the label free of charge. The safety recall began on september 13, 2010. Owners may contact jayco at 1-800-283-8267.
