The defect
JAYCO IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2012 JAY FLIGHT BUNGALOW TRAVEL TRAILERS, MANUFACTURED FROM MARCH 19, 2012, THROUGH MARCH 27, 2012. THE LOAD RANGE AND THE COLD TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE ON THESE TRAILERS ARE INCORRECTLY IDENTIFIED. THUS, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 120, TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS.
The risk
RELYING ON THE A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING SPECIFICATIONS OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A TIRE FAILURE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy
JAYCO WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL REMOVE AND REPLACE THE LABELS WITH A CORRECT LABEL. THE RECALL WILL BEGIN IN MAY 2012. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT JAYCO AT 574-825-0608.

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 12V183000.
