What happened

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. is recalling certain 2015-2017 Vista Cruisers and 2016-2018 Vintage Cruiser travel trailers because the Tire Identification Label on these vehicles contains incorrect information. The label states the trailers are equipped with ST215/75R 14 Load Range C rated tires, when they actually have ST205/65R 14 Load Range D rated tires. Installing the wrong replacement tire based on the incorrect label could affect the vehicle's handling and increase the risk of a crash.

To remedy this issue, Gulf Stream will notify owners and provide a corrected Tire Identification Label free of charge. The recall began on June 26, 2017. Affected owners should contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787 and reference recall number GS250517 to arrange for the corrected label.
