Details

What's wrong: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2018 Eagle ea, eb, ed travel trailers. The federal labels and cargo carrying capacity (ccc) label on these vehicles may incorrectly list the gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) as 11,750lbs, when the actual gvwr is 11,700lbs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 110, "tire selection and rims."

Why it matters: If the gvwr is incorrect it can allow the vehicle to be overloaded, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Jayco will notify owners and provide them with a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on February 13, 2018.
