Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Fleetwood RV is recalling certain Class A motor homes from model years 2009 through 2011, including the American Allegiance, American Heritage, Revolution LE, American Eagle, American Tradition, Discovery, and Providence models manufactured between September 4, 2009, and January 5, 2011. These vehicles have a misprinted federal certification tag where the intermediate and rear tire pressure ratings are printed in reversed positions, which could lead to improper vehicle loading or tire inflation and potentially result in tire failure and increased crash risk.
Fleetwood RV will mail correct federal certification tags to dealers and owners along with installation instructions. Owners can choose to have a dealer install the tag for free, or install it themselves. The recall was expected to begin in August 2011. Affected owners may contact Fleetwood Owner Relations at 1-800-509-3418 for more information.
