Jayco calls back some Eagle Premiers

[h=3]Jayco calls back some Eagle Premiers[/h]
Jayco, Inc. is recalling 40 model year 2013 Eagle Premier fifth wheel recreational vehicle trailers, manufactured from June 14, 2012, through Aug. 10, 2012. These vehicles were manufactured with incorrect information on the Recreational Vehicle Cargo Carrying Capacity Label. 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."

An inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. An overloaded vehicle can result in a tire failure which may result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or property damage.

Jayco will notify owners and provide corrected labels free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during Nov. 2012. Owners may contact Jayco at 574-825-0608.

So you spend lots of money buying what you think will carry a certain load and then find that you will get a new sticker with a lower rating. I would think that tires, springs or axle upgrade up to what you paid for would be the honorable way to go. Just my opinion.
