Airstream Recalls 2011-2012 International RVs for Incorrect Tire Label

Airstream is recalling certain 2011-2012 International recreational vehicles because they have incorrect tire information labels, which could lead to property damage if the wrong tires are installed.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a labeling error that could lead to property damage if incorrect tires are installed, but no injuries or deaths are reported, fitting the criteria for moderate severity.

Plain-English summary
