Plain-English summary

Starcraft RV, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2012 and 2013 AR-One travel trailers. The recall addresses an inaccurate load carrying capacity label on these vehicles. This defect causes the vehicles to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The inaccurate label may lead to the tire being replaced with one of an incorrect rim diameter. If two different diameter tires are installed, the handling ability of the trailer is reduced, which increases the risk of a crash.

Starcraft will notify owners and provide a corrected label free of charge. The safety recall began on October 17, 2012. Owners may contact Starcraft RV at 1-800-945-4787 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
