NHTSA recall 05V077000
Equipment · Winnebago Industries, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Certain motor homes built on 24,000-lb gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr)workhorse chassis with 235/80r22.5g xrv tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 120, 'tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars.' The motor homes were inadvertently equipped with an incorrect load range tire label.
Why it matters: Failure to follow proper vehicle loading specifications and tire inflation recommendations can result in tire damage and vehicle instability, which could result in a crash.
The fix: Owners will be mailed supplementary tire labels containing the correct tire inflation information. If an owner desires, their dealer can install the label for them. The recall began on March 24, 2005.
