Plain-English summary

Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC is recalling certain model year 2014 Landmark Grand Canyon, Key Largo, Monterey, San Antonio, and Savannah fifth wheel travel trailers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between September 14, 2013, and January 17, 2014, and are equipped with optional 17.5-inch wheels. These trailers were manufactured with incorrect information printed on the Federal Certification Label regarding the wheel specification, meaning they do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 119.

The incorrect label may result in owners attempting to replace the tires with the wrong size or fill the tires to the wrong tire pressure. This error may increase the risk of tire failure and a crash.

Heartland will notify owners and mail a corrected replacement label free of charge. The recall began on February 26, 2014. Owners may contact Heartland at 1-888-262-5992.
