Recall 12V471000

Equipment › Other › Labels — Starcraft · reported 27 Sep 2012 · 76 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Starcraft RV (Starcraft) is recalling certain model year 2012 and 2013 AR-One travel trailers that may have an inaccurate load carrying capacity label. Due to the inaccurate label, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The risk

An inaccurate label may lead to the tire being replaced with one of an incorrect rim diameter. Two different diameter tires would reduce the handling ability of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Starcraft will notify owners and will provide a corrected label free of charge. The safety recall began on October 17, 2012. Owners may contact Starcraft RV at 1-800-945-4787.

Customers may 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.
