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 instability and a crash, but no injuries or fatalities have been reported.

Plain-English summary

Starcraft RV is recalling certain model year 2016 Launch and AR-One travel trailers manufactured between March 31, 2015, and April 20, 2015. The recall involves 36 units that may be equipped with Federal Certification Labels that incorrectly list the tire size as ST205/75R14C, while the actual tire size is LT235/75R15C. These labels fail to comply with Federal Regulation Part 567.

If an operator installs an incorrect tire based on the wrong label information, excessive tire wear may result. This condition may cause instability during towing, which increases the risk of a crash.

Starcraft will notify owners, and dealers will install a new corrected label free of charge. The recall began on May 28, 2015. Owners may contact Starcraft customer service at 1-800-945-4787 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
