The federal certification label and tire placards contain incorrect information
February 6, 2017Airstream is recalling 82 model year 2017 Flying Cloud, International, and Sport recreational trailers.
The Vehicles' federal certification label and tire placards have incorrect information. The label was printed for ST225/75R15 Load Range E tires, but the vehicle has ST225/75R15 Load Range D tires. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims" and Part 567, "Certification."
The incorrect information on the labels could cause an owner to overinflate the tires, possibly resulting in a tire blowout, increasing the risk of a crash.
What to do
Airstream will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incorrect label with a corrected label, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
Owners may contact Airstream customer service at 1-937-596-6111, extension 7401 or 7411.
