On certain fifth wheel trailers, the Cargo Carrying Capacity label does not contain the correct capacity rating. This value will vary depending on the optional equipment installed during vehicle assembly. Incorrect information on the Cargo Carrying Capacity label could lead to the vehicle being loaded improperly, which could result in poor vehicle handling characteristics, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles, along with instructions for proper installation.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2012340.
