NHTSA recall 16V431000 · announced June 13, 2016 · filed by Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. · 24 units affected

The problem

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. (Gulf Stream) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Ameri-Lite and Super-Lite trailers manufactured January 11, 2016, through April 11, 2016. On the Federal Information Certification label, these trailers incorrectly list the tire size as ST205/75D-14-C with a wheel size of 14x5.5, when the correct tire size is actually 235/75R-15-C with a wheel size of 15x6. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

The risk

If relying on the label, an incorrect replacement wheel and tire combination may be installed, possibly increasing the risk of a crash.

What to do

Gulf Stream will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected Federal Certification label, free of charge. The recall began on July 22, 2016. Owners may contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787. Gulf Stream's number for this recall is GT060816.
