The problem
Jayco is recalling certain model year 2007-2008 jay feather lgt travel trailers manufactured from october 9, 2006, through april 17, 2008. These travel trailers may have insufficient clearance between the tires and the wheel well.
The risk
This could allow the tires to contact the wheel well increasing the risk of a crash, injury, or death.
The fix
Jayco will notify owners, and jayco dealers will add a spacer to increase the distance between the axle and the wheel well. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on november 11, 2011. Owners may contact jayco at 1-800-283-8267.
