Issue

Certain travel trailers may not comply with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) on the compliance label may be incorrect. GAWR may be indicated as 2,304 kg (5,080 lbs) instead of 1,996 kg (4,400 lbs) and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) as 5,051 kg (11,135 lbs) instead of 4,433 (9,774 lbs). This could result in vehicle overloading, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Owners will be sent a revised compliance label with the correct GAWR and GVWR.
