NHTSA campaign 18V073000 · Part 573 safety recall report

Jayco, Inc.: Equipment › Other › Labels

Jayco, Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Jan 29, 2018 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 461. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.

The defect

Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2018 Eagle EA, EB, ED travel trailers. The Federal Labels and Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) label on these vehicles may incorrectly list the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) as 11,750lbs, when the actual GVWR is 11,700lbs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The risk

If the GVWR is incorrect it can allow the vehicle to be overloaded, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Jayco will notify owners and provide them with a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on February 13, 2018. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco's number for this recall is 9901373.

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 18V073000.
