- Problem
- Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 FCCC XCR chassis manufactured May 12, 2014, to December 10, 2015. The incomplete vehicle document (IVD) labels incorrectly list the tire pressures as 130 psi in the steer and tag axle positions rather than the correct rating of 120psi.
- Risk
- If the tire is inflated to the incorrect PSI on the label, the rims may suddenly fail due to being over pressurized, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- DTNA notified the only purchaser of the affected chassis and provided them with corrected IVD labels, free of charge. DTNA will not notify the motorhome owners directly. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-710.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
What this recall means for you
Certain 2015-2016 FCCC XCR chassis, built between May 12, 2014 and December 10, 2015, have incomplete vehicle document labels that list the steer and tag axle tire pressure as 130 psi instead of the correct 120 psi. If a tire is inflated to the pressure shown on the incorrect label, the rim may suddenly fail from overpressurization, which raises the risk of a crash.
The manufacturer, Daimler Trucks North America, notified the only purchaser of the affected chassis and supplied corrected labels at no charge. The manufacturer will not contact motorhome owners directly, so owners who think their vehicle may be affected should contact Daimler Trucks North America customer service at 1-800-547-0712 and reference recall number FL-710. Check your vehicle's VIN for open recalls, and do not inflate the steer or tag tires above 120 psi until the correct label is in place.
