Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2017 Jay Flight travel trailers manufactured between May 6, 2016, and May 9, 2016. The recall addresses incorrect weight ratings on the tire labels, which causes the vehicles to fail to comply with Federal Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

Incorrect weight ratings on the tire labels could cause the operator to overload the vehicle. This may lead to premature tire wear, which increases the risk of a crash.

All affected units are currently in dealer inventory. Dealers will be provided with new, corrected labels. The recall began on May 27, 2016. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
