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

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2017 Jay Sport camping trailers, model 12SC, manufactured between September 14, 2016, and October 3, 2016. The recall involves 56 vehicles where the labels incorrectly state that the vehicle is equipped with ST175/80R13D tires requiring 65 PSI, when the vehicles are actually equipped with ST175/80R13C tires requiring 50 PSI. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

Incorrect tire pressure information may result in the tires being over-inflated, which can cause possible tire failure and increase the risk of a crash. Jayco has notified owners and provided them with a corrected label free of charge. The recall began on November 1, 2016.
