⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motor homes, the gross axle weight rating (gawr) is incorrect on the federal certification label. The initial label shows the rear gawr as 19,500 lbs. Correct rear gawr is 19,200 lbs. The gvwr showed 29,000 lbs. Correct gvwr is 28,700 lbs.
💥 The risk
These vehicles do not comply with the regulations.
