2000 Fleetwood American Dream & 2000 Fleetwood American Eagle + 2 more recall: tires
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: motor homes. The subject motor homes, when built with a disproportionate front axle weight distribution, fully equipped, loaded with cargo, and operated with improper tire pressures, CAN experience an overload condition on a front tire.
💥 The risk
Overloading of a tire CAN lead to tire failure.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will equip the subject motor homes with new larger capacity front tires, will adjust the weight distribution on the front axle (if necessary), apply new certification labels, and reinforce consumer education about the importance of tire maintenance, including rotation, alignment, and tire inflation pressure.
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.)
