Smc recall: Tires
What is wrong
SMC Trailers is recalling certain 2019-2020 Laramie trailers. The Federal Placard indicates the incorrect tire PSI, which may result in the tires being overinflated. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
What could happen
Tires inflated to the limit provided on the label could fail, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
SMC Trailers will notify owners, and dealers will provide new placards with the correct PSI listed, free of charge. The recall began March 13, 2020. Owners may contact SMC Trailers customer service at 1-574-966-5598.
