Summary:
KEYSTONE IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2007-2009 COUGAR FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS MANUFACTURED FROM MAY 12, 2006, THROUGH FEBRUARY 12, 2009, FOR INCORRECT INFORMATION ON THE FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION TAG AND TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABEL. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF PART 567, "CERTIFICATION." THE SUBJECT VEHICLES WERE MANUFACTURED WITH A LABEL THAT LISTS THE MAXIMUM TIRE PRESSURE OF 80PSI INSTEAD OF THE CORRECT MAXIMUM PRESSURE OF 65PSI.
Consequence:
OVERINFLATING TIRES INCREASES THE RISK OF TIRE FAILURE AND PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Remedy:
KEYSTONE WILL MAIL TO CONSUMERS THE CORRECTED LABEL OR THE CUSTOMER WILL HAVE THE OPTION FOR DEALERS TO INSTALL THE LABEL
Labeling doesn't sound like a big deal, but if you overinflate your tires it can lead to an unexpected tire failure while you are riding down the road - and that can lead to a dangerous accident.
