What's wrong: Gulf Stream coach, Inc. (Gulf Stream) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Ameri-lite and Super-lite trailers manufactured January 11, 2016, through April 11, 2016. On the federal information certification label, these trailers incorrectly list the tire size as st205/75d-14-c with a wheel size of 14x5.5, when the correct tire size is actually 235/75r-15-c with a wheel size of 15x6. As such, these vehicles fail…

Why it matters: If relying on the label, an incorrect replacement wheel and tire combination may be installed, possibly increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Gulf stream will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected federal certification label, free of charge. The recall began on July 22, 2016.
