Component:

Equipment:other:labels

Manufactured:

Defect:

Certain travel trailers and fifth wheel trailers fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110 "tire selection and rims." the tire and loading information placard contains incorrect information regarding the maximum cargo carrying capacity.
