2009 Holiday Rambler Alumascape & 2009 Holiday Rambler Presidential recall: equipment

⚠️ What's wrong

Monaco is recalling 22 my 2009 Alumascape fifth wheel, Alumascape suite and Presidential travel trailers. These trailers fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars." when tires were changed on these vehicles, the federal identification label was printed with incorrect information. The tire inflation is listed as 80 PSI when the correct pressure should be 65 PSI.

Over inflated tires could cause or contribute to premature tire failure; possibly resulting in a sudden blowout or other failure which could result in a loss of control of the unit increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will mail consumers the corrected labels along with instructions. Customers will have the option for dealers to install the label free of charge. The recall began on august 7, 2008. Owners may contact monaco at 1-800-685-6545.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
