Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Dutchmen Manufacturing is recalling certain 2010-2011 model year recreational vehicles, including Coleman, Dutchmen, Four Winds, Aristocrat, Dutchmen Lite, Dutchmen Sport, and Rainier models manufactured between November 2, 2009 and May 5, 2010. These vehicles have axles that may not provide adequate clearance between the tire sidewalls and the travel trailer wheel well or slide room cross shaft, which could cause the tire to rub against these components and fail.
A tire failure caused by inadequate clearance could result in loss of vehicle control and a crash. According to the recall record, affected owners should contact the Dutchmen Warranty Service Department at 1-866-869-1109. Dealers will inspect the vehicles free of charge and perform any necessary modifications to address inadequate sidewall tire clearance.
