Certain fifth wheel trailers were manufactured with incorrect axle information printed on the compliance label. The actual axle rating (GAWR) is 5,080 lbs but is listed as 5,200 lbs on the label. Towing a vehicle with overloaded axles may result in axle failure, which could lead to a loss of control and a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Labels will be replaced by the new labels with corrected information.
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 2010099.
