The problem
Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2018 Eagle TT 330RSTS (EA) recreational trailers. The Federal Placard on these vehicles incorrectly lists the Gross Axle Weight Rating capacity (GAWR) as 5,800lbs, when the axles actually have a capacity of 5,660lbs. 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
The incorrect GAWR may result in the vehicle being overloaded, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will provide a new Federal ID labels with the correct GAWR, free of charge. The recall began on June 1, 2017. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267.
