Plain-English summary

DS Corp doing business as Crossroads RV is recalling certain model year 2015 Crossroads Zinger Z-1 and Cruiser trailers. The recall covers Zinger Z-1 trailers manufactured between March 21, 2014, and September 10, 2014, and Cruiser trailers manufactured between April 3, 2014, and September 5, 2014.

The affected trailers may have a Federal Certification Label with incorrect information. The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) is overstated by 2,000 lbs for Cruiser models and 1,600 lbs for Zinger Z-1 models. This error causes the Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) to be overstated on the Tire Placard label, causing the vehicles to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110 and Part 567.

Incorrect GVWR information may result in the trailer being overloaded, which could cause sudden tire, axle, or suspension failure. This increases the risk of loss of control and a crash. Crossroads will notify owners and send corrected Federal Certification, Tire Placard, and CCC labels with installation instructions free of charge. The recall began in October 2014. Owners may contact Crossroads customer service at 1-855-226-7496 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
