What is wrong
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.
What can happen
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.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
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.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
