Gulf Stream Coach is recalling 15 model year 2018 Geo and Matrix recreational trailers.
The vehicles ' federal certification labels may incorrectly list the Kilogram (Kg) weight rating of the rear axle as 182 Kg/401.31 lbs. below its actual capacity.
The information for the front axle is correctly listed as 4400 lbs./1996kg, but the rear axle information is incorrectly listed as 4400lbs./1814kg. The discrepancy in information may cause the owner confusion.
What to do
Gulf Stream will notify owners, and will provide corrected labels, free of charge.
The recall was expected to begin February 28, 2018.
