Defect summary

Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2017 Jay Flight SLX travel trailers equipped with the Rocky Mountain Package option. The Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) labels on the affected vehicles did not include the weight of the water tank and water when calculating the CCC, therefore, the CCC is overstated beyond the 1% variance allowed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

Consequence

Without an accurate CCC, the trailer may be overloaded, affecting the handling and increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Jayco has notified owners and will provide them with corrected labels, free of charge. The recall began on July 20, 2017. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco's number for this recall is 9901358.

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.
