Pacific Coachworks recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Pacific Coachworks is recalling certain model year 2016 Rage'N toy haulers, model 27FBX, manufactured April 1, 2015, to April 30, 2016. There may be an incorrect Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) value printed on the Federal Information label, allowing the vehicle to be over loaded. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, "Wheel and Rims - Other Than Passenger Cars."
What could happen
If the vehicle was loaded to the incorrect CCC on the label, the vehicle would be overloaded, possibly causing tire failure, and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Pacific Coachworks will notify owners, and dealers will issue a corrected Federal Information Tag with the correct CCC information, free of charge. The recall began on June 27, 2016. Owners may contact Pacific Coachworks customer service at 1-951-686-7294.
