Summary of the Safety Concern:
CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS." THE FRONT TIRES COLD INFLATION PRESSURES ARE INCORRECT. THE CORRECT COLD TIRE PRESSURE SHOULD BE 120 PSI THAT WILL SUPPORT 13,220 POUNDS. |
||
|
Consequence:
THIS COULD CAUSE PREMATURE TIRE TREAD WEAR OR TIRE FAILURE DURING NORMAL DRIVING. THE PREMATURE TIRE TREAD WEAR OR TIRE FAILURE COULD LEAD TO A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. |
