Issue
On certain fifth wheel trailers, the certification label may not contain the correct Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). The label incorrectly indicates a GVWR of 18500 lbs (8391 kg) instead of 18000 lbs (8165 kg). This could lead to vehicle overloading, which would result in poor vehicle handling characteristics, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles, along with instructions for proper installation.
