Summary

Tracker Marine L.L.C. "Tracker" is recalling certain model year 2016 Trailstar Tahoe boat trailers, models 400, 450, 500, and 550, manufactured March 23, 2015, to June 24, 2015. The affected trailers were built with wheels that have load range "C" tires installed, instead of load range "D" tires as specified. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims and Motor Home/Recreation Vehicle Trailer Load Carrying Capacity Information for Motor Vehicles with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms "10,000 pounds" or less."

Consequence

If the trailer exceeds the load rating on the tire, the tire may suddenly fail, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Tracker will notify owners, and dealers will replace the wheels that have load range "C" tires for wheels with the correct load range "D" tires, free of charge. Owners may contact Tracker customer service at 1-417-873-4555. Tracker's number for this recall is TS-0031.

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.
