Starcraft RV

EQUIPMENT — Incorrect Tire Label information/FMVSS 120 · December 20, 2013

The problem

Starcraft RV, Inc. (Starcraft) is recalling certain model year 2014 Comet BK, BW, BX, and BY recreational vehicles manufactured August 22, 2013, through December 10, 2013. On the affected vehicles, the certification label incorrectly identifies the load range of the tires. Thus, these vehicles 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."

Risk

An inaccurate label may result in the installation of replacement tires with an insufficient load range which may lead to sudden tire failure and an increased risk of a crash.

What owners should do

All affected trailers are quarantined in dealer inventory. Starcraft will send corrected labels to those dealers. The recall began on January 20, 2014. Owners may contact Starcraft Customer Service at 1-800-945-4787.
