FLEETWOOD RV IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2009 AMERICAN ALLEGIANCE, AMERICAN HERITAGE, REVOLUTION LE; MODEL YEAR 2010 AMERICAN EAGLE, AMERICAN HERITAGE, REVOLUTION LE, AND MODEL YEAR 2011 AMERICAN EAGLE, AMERICAN HERITAGE, AMERICAN TRADITION, DISCOVERY, PROVIDENCE, AND REVOLUTION LE, CLASS A MOTOR HOMES MANUFACTURED FROM SEPTEMBER 4, 2009, THROUGH JANUARY 5, 2011. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF PART 567, "CERTIFICATION".

Consequence: A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING SPECIFICATIONS OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A TIRE FAILURE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy: FLEETWOOD RV WILL MAIL THE CORRECT FEDERAL CERTIFICATION TAGS TO DEALERS AND OWNERS ALONG WITH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. AT THE CUSTOMER'S OPTION, A DEALER CAN PERFORM THE INSTALLATION FOR THEM FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING AUGUST 2011.
