Why it was recalled

The incorrect rim designation on the label, can cause the operator to replace the rim with an incorrect rim size, increasing the risk of a crash.

What was recalled

Keystone RV Company (Keystone) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Dutchmen Aerolite recreational trailers, models 2133RB and 2423BH. The Federal Certification Label incorrectly indicates a rim size of 14X5.5J when the correct rim size is 14X5J. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification" and can create a safety risk.
