What NHTSA recorded

Certain motor homes fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, 'tire selection and rims.' the federal identification labels contains incorrect information regarding the rim size and tire inflation rating as well as an incorrect rating for the gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) and front gross axle weight rating (gawr).

Possible consequence

This misprint could lead to an incorrect rim being placed on the unit that would not be rated for the gawr, in addition to overloading the unit and over-inflating the tires. Driving with over-inflated tires can cause or contribute to premature tire failure that could result in a loss of control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Owners will be provided with a corrected federal identification label and installation instructions. If an owner wishes, a dealer can place the label on for them. The recall began on august 30, 2004. Owners should contact monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
