What's wrong
Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland)) is recalling certain 2023 Big Country and Big Horn fifth wheels. The federal certification label may have incorrect tire information. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 120, " Wheels and Rims-Other Than Passenger Cars."
Why it matters
Incorrect tire size information can allow an incorrectly sized tire to be installed, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Heartland will mail owners replacement certification labels, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 31, 2023. Owners may contact Heartland customer service at 1-877-262-8032.
