Jayco is recalling 2014 Jay Flight Swift travel trailers equipped with the Baja Option because the Federal Certification and Tire Labels list the wrong tire size.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where the defect (incorrect tire labeling) could lead to towing instability and a crash, but no injuries or illnesses have been reported.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2014 Jay Flight Swift travel trailers manufactured between January 10, 2014, and January 13, 2014, that are equipped with the Baja Option. The recall involves 18 vehicles.

The Federal Certification and Tire Labels on these trailers incorrectly list the tire size as ST205/75R14C instead of the correct LT235/75R15C. This labeling error means the vehicles do not conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, "Tire Selection and Rims for Motor Vehicles Other Than Passenger Cars."

If a consumer installs a tire based on the incorrect label, it may cause uneven tire wear and towing instability, which could increase the risk of a crash. Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incorrect labels with new ones containing the correct tire information. The recall began on March 24, 2014. Customers may contact Jayco at 1-800-283-8267 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
