- Problem
- Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain model year 2017 Jay Flight SLX travel trailers, model 212 QBW, manufactured June 27, 2016, to June 28, 2016.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
- Risk
- Incorrect weight on labels can allow the operator to overload the vehicle, affecting vehicle handling, and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy

- 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 2017 Jayco Jay Flight SLX model 212 QBW travel trailers, built between June 27 and June 28, 2016, have Cargo Carrying Capacity and tire labels that list an incorrect vehicle weight. The labels fail to meet federal tire labeling requirements under FMVSS 110.
Because the labels show the wrong weight, an owner could load the trailer beyond its safe limit without realizing it. An overloaded trailer can handle poorly and has a higher risk of a crash.
Jayco has supplied dealers with corrected labels, and the remedy is free of charge. Contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-2833-8267 and reference recall number 9901300, and check your vehicle identification number for any open recalls.
