The short answer
NHTSA received PACIFIC COACHWORKS’s report on Mar 25, 2009. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A TIRE FAILURE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
PACIFIC COACHWORKS IS RECALLING 216 MY 2008 TANGO TRAVEL TRAILERS.
THESE TRAILERS FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 110, “TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS.” THE INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THE TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABELS DENOTING THE TIRE PRESSURE AND THE GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR) IS INCORRECT.
THE TIRE SPECIFIED PRESSURE READS 65 PSI WHEN IT SHOULD READ 50 PSI AND THE GAWR IS LISTED AS 3700 LBS WHEN IT SHOULD READ 3500 LBS.

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.
