Summary

CERTAIN FIFTH WHEEL AND TRAVEL TRAILERS' FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABELS ARE INCORRECT. THE TIRE INFLATION IS LISTED AS 60 PSI WHEN THE CORRECT SHOULD BE 80 PSI. IN ADDITION, THE AXLE WEIGHT RATING IS INCORRECT ON CERTAIN 1998 IMPERIAL TRAVEL TRAILERS. THE LABEL SHOWS 6000 LBS. WHEN THE CORRECT RATING SHOULD BE 5200 LBS.

Consequence

THIS INCORRECT INFORMATION COULD LEAD TO UNDER/OVER INFLATED TIRES AND COULD CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO PREMATURE TIRE FAILURE POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A SUDDEN BLOWOUT OR OTHER FAILURE WHICH COULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE UNIT.
