Recall 14V324000
Equipment › Other › Labels — Coachmen, Viking · reported 13 Jun 2014 · 57 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
Viking RV, LLC (Viking) is recalling certain model year 2014 Viking Epic 1706LS and Coachmen Sport 806LS recreational trailers manufactured January 16, 2014, through May 28, 2014. The affected vehicles incorrectly list the recommended tire air pressure as 90PSI instead of 60PSI on the Federal Certification Tag and Tire Information Tag. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Number 119, "New Pneumatic Tires for Vehicles Other Than Passenger Cars."
The risk
If the tires are filled to the air pressure indicated on the current label, there is an increased risk of a tire blowout which may result in a crash.
The fix
Viking has notified owners, and has mailed owners corrected labels, free of charge. The recall began on June 16, 2014. Owners may contact Viking customer service at 1-800-368-2829.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to 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.
