Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
THE WEIGHT LABEL ON THE HITCH RECEIVER PROVIDES THE MAXIMUM TRAILER WEIGHT RATING AND THE MAXIMUM TONGUE WEIGHT RATING. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THESE RATINGS NOT BE EXCEEDED. FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR HOME FRAME, BODY, OR HITCH RECEIVER AND COULD CAUSE UNSTABLE DRIVING AND HANDLING CHARACTERISTRICS WHICH MAY RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
CERTAIN DIESEL CLASS A MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF PART 567, “CERTIFICATION.” THE MANUFACTURERS’ TOW HITCH RECEIVER INFORMATION LABEL WAS PRINTED WITH THE INCORRECT WEIGHT CARRYING CAPACITY VALUE AND THE INCORRECT TONGUE WEIGHT VALUE.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
