ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET 2500/3500 VAN CHASSIS, WHILE REPLACING THE STEEL RIMS WITH ALUMINUM RIMS, INCORRECT VALVE STEMS WITH INCORRECT PRESSURE RATING LOWER THAN THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE ALLOWED FOR THE TIRES WERE INSTALLED.
SOME VALVES MAY LEAK AIR INCREASING THE RISK OF A TIRE FAILURE. THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE VALVE STEMS. THE RECALL BEGAN IN NOVEMBER 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HOME & PARK AT 1-888-762-3873.
CUSTOMERS CAN ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT '1-888-327-4236'.
