Issued by Starcraft RV · Reported Aug 19, 2014 · 12 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Starcraft RV (Starcraft) is recalling certain model year 2015 16RB Launch travel trailers equipped with the Extreme Package Option, manufactured April 16, 2014, to April 21, 2014. The information on the Federal ID label incorrectly indicates an 80psi cold tire inflation pressure instead of the correct pressure of 50psi. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 120, "Tire selection and rims and motor home/recreation vehicle trailer load carrying capacity information for motor vehicles with a GVWR of more than 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds)."

Consequence

If the user inflates the tire to the incorrect psi noted on the label, a tire blowout could occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Starcraft will notify owners, and dealers will remove the incorrect labels and replace them with a new label with the correct information, free of charge. The recall began in late August 2014. Owners may contact Starcraft customer service at 1-800-945-4787.
