Jayco Travel Trailer JAY Feather Recall 24V435: Wrong-size spare tire can cause incorrect inflation and crash risk

NHTSA campaign 24V435, reported June 13, 2024, 24 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain 2024 Jay Feather travel trailers were built with a 14-inch spare tire, even though the tire placard information is based on a 15-inch tire. As a result, the vehicle does not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 110, which covers tire selection and rims.

The placard is the guide for how much air to put in a tire. Because it was written for a 15-inch spare, an owner following it could inflate the 14-inch spare to the wrong pressure, which increases the risk of a crash.

Dealers will replace the spare tire free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 28, 2024. For help, contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 and reference recall number 9901609. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
