What is wrong
CERTAIN FIFTH WHEEL AND TRAVEL TRAILERS' FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABELS ARE INCORRECT. THE TIRE INFLATION IS LISTED AS 60 PSI WHEN THE CORRECT SHOULD BE 80 PSI. IN ADDITION, THE AXLE WEIGHT RATING IS INCORRECT ON CERTAIN 1998 IMPERIAL TRAVEL TRAILERS. THE LABEL SHOWS 6000 LBS. WHEN THE CORRECT RATING SHOULD BE 5200 LBS.
What can happen
THIS INCORRECT INFORMATION COULD LEAD TO UNDER/OVER INFLATED TIRES AND COULD CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO PREMATURE TIRE FAILURE POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A SUDDEN BLOWOUT OR OTHER FAILURE WHICH COULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE UNIT.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABEL ON THE UNITS INVOLVED. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2003. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE LABEL WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT MONACO AT 1-877-466-6226.

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.
