Fleetwood Bounder Classic Motorhomes Recalled for Incorrect Tire Certification Labels

Plain-English summary

Fleetwood RV, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2012 and 2013 Bounder Classic model 30T motorhomes manufactured between February 17, 2012, and November 30, 2012. The recall involves 14 vehicles.
