What it said before
Nothing has changed while we have been watching. We last read the wording of this campaign on 17 September 2026, and it matched the copy we already held.
That copy hashes to a071f2ce2acc4efee8b2dbd62d513cb6…, so if it is ever edited the change is provable rather than a matter of memory.
This is one of 455 notices in the record whose component field names tires. Across that group the median wait before owners were written to was 34 days.

The wording we hold for 25V200 · how the whole register is watched
538 days after this was filed with the regulator, the register still carries no date for the letter to owners. The sixty days 49 CFR 577.7 allows have passed. A blank there is a gap in the record, which is not the same as a gap in the post: where this maker stands on the sixty days.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Great Dane Champion, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
