KZRV Recalls 2017-2019 Trailers Due to Incorrect Tire Size Label

KZRV is recalling 2017-2019 Durango, Venom, and Sidewinder trailers because the Federal Certification label lists the wrong tire size, which could lead to incorrect tire installation.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is a labeling error that could lead to incorrect tire installation and increased crash risk, but no injuries or crashes have been reported, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity recall.
