Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc.: Equipment › Other › Labels
Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Nov 16, 2006 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 192. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF PART 567, "CERTIFICATION." THE FEDERAL CERTIFICATION TAG FIGURES RELATED TO THE REAR TIRE PRESSURE TAG OF 60 PSI ARE INCORRECT. THE CORRECT REAR TIRE PRESSURE RATING IS 80 PSI.
The risk
A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN TIRE FAILURE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy
FLEETWOOD WILL MAIL THE CORRECT FEDERAL CERTIFICATION TAG ALONG WITH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. FLEETWOOD IS ALSO ASKING OWNERS TO CHECK AND, IF NECESSARY, INFLATE THE REAR TIRES TO THE CORRECT 80 PSI. IF OWNERS ARE NOT COMFORTABLE INSTALLING THE LABEL THEMSELVES OR CHECKING THE TIRE PRESSURE, OWNERS CAN TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO THEIR DEALER. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 5, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FLEETWOOD AT 800-505-3418.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 06V437000.
