Starcraft RV Recalls 2015 Launch Ultra Lite Travel Trailers for Tire Label Error

Starcraft RV is recalling 2015 Launch Ultra Lite travel trailers because tire labels list incorrect pressure information, which could lead to over-inflation and tire blowouts.

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 (tire blowout/crash) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Starcraft RV is recalling certain model year 2015 Travel Trailer 2JY 17SB units manufactured between August 27, 2014, and November 10, 2014. The recall involves 32 vehicles. The defect is that the tire labels contain incorrect tire pressure information, indicating 65 PSI when the correct pressure is 50 PSI. This non-compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110 may cause operators to over-inflate the tires, increasing the risk of a tire blowout and a vehicle crash.

Starcraft will mail new labels to owners with replacement instructions. Owners can also request dealers to install the new tire label free of charge. The recall began on December 10, 2014.
