What's wrong
JAYCO IS RECALLING 28 MY 2009 LEGACY FIFTH WHEEL TRAVEL TRAILERS FOR FAILING TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS." THERE IS A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR INCORRECTLY STATING THE TIRE LOAD RANGE AND THE INFLATION PRESSURE ON THE FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION LABEL FOR THE REAR AXLE.
The risk
IF THE CORRECT TIRE PRESSURE IS NOT USED, IT MAY CAUSE PREMATURE TIRE WEAR AND FAILURE INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The fix
ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS CAMPAIGN WERE CORRECTED BEFORE SALE TO CONSUMERS. NO FURTHER ACTION IS REQUIRED ON THIS CAMPAIGN.
CUSTOMERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
