Campaign:

18V074000 on 01/29/2018

Component:

Equipment:other:labels

Manufactured:

09/10/2017 - 11/27/2017

Affected:

84

Defect:

Highland ridge rv (highland ridge) is recalling certain 2018 open range light travel trailers, model 312bhs. the federal label on these vehicles incorrectly lists the gross axle weight rating (gawr) as 5100lbs when the correct gawr is 4400lbs. as such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 110, "tire selection and rims."

Consequence:

The incorrect gawr information may result in the trailer being overloaded which can cause the tires to wear prematurely, increasing the risk of a crash.

Correction:

Highland ridge will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incorrect federal label with a corrected label, free of charge. the recall began on february 7, 2018. owners may contact highland ridge customer service at 1-260-768-7771. highland's number for this recall is 9904374.

Notes:

Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
