Dutchmen recall: Equipment

What is wrong

Dutchmen is recalling certain model year 2011 coleman, dutchmen, and four winds travel trailers manufactured from may 14, 2010 through june 29, 2010 for failing to comply with the requirements of part 567, "certification." these vehicles were manufactured with the incorrect information on the federal identification tag. The label lists the wrong gross axle weight rating (gawr), the wrong number of axles and the wrong gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr). This could lead to an owner overloading a trailer.

What could happen

Overloading the trailer could result in loss of vehicle control increasing the risk of a crash or property damage.

The fix

Dealers will mail to consumers the corrected label or the customer will have the option for dealers to install the label free of charge. The safety recall began on august 2, 2010. Owners may contact the dutchmen warranty service department at 1-866-869-1109.
