On certain travel trailers, the certification label does not contain the correct tire size information and load range information. The labels incorrectly indicate a tire size of ST215/75R 14 C rated tire(s), while the correct size on the trailer should read ST205/75R 14 D rated tire(s). As a result, an incorrect tire size may inadvertently be fitted, which may lead to poor vehicle handling characteristics and potentially result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Labels stating the correct tire size will be mailed to owners along with instructions for proper installation.
