On certain motorhomes, the Compliance label does not contain correct tire information. The label incorrectly indicates 245/70R19.5F tires with 655 kPa (95 psi) tire pressure and 19.5 x 6.75 rims, instead of 235/80R22.5G tires with 620 kPa (90 psi) tire pressure and 22.5 x 7.50 rims. As a result, the tires may be under-inflated, or the vehicle may inadvertently be fitted with incorrect replacement tires and wheels. Overloaded tires may lead to poor vehicle handling characteristics, which could result in 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.
