Jayco Recalls 2017 Hummingbird Travel Trailers Due to Incorrect Tire Labels

Jayco is recalling 2017 Hummingbird travel trailers because tire labels list incorrect pressure requirements, which could lead to tire failure and crashes.

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 failure leading to crash) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2017 Hummingbird travel trailers, specifically models H13C0567-0603, 0608-0636, 0638-0662, and H13E0052-0110. The recall affects 104 vehicles. The issue involves the tire labels on these vehicles, which incorrectly state that they are equipped with 14-inch load range D tires requiring 65 PSI. In reality, the vehicles are equipped with 14-inch load range C tires that require 50 PSI. This labeling error means the vehicles do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The incorrect information on the labels may cause owners to over-inflate the tires. Over-inflation could lead to tire failure, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or crashes have been reported in the source text, but the potential for harm exists due to the risk of tire failure.

The recall began on July 13, 2017. Jayco will notify owners and provide corrected labels free of charge. Owners can contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 for more information. Jayco's number for this recall is 9901357. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
