Issue
Certain cargo trailers may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 110 - Tire Selection and Rims. The certification, tire and loading information labels do not contain correct tire pressure (PSI and kPA) information. The labels incorrectly state a tire pressure of 50 PSI (345 kPa), but instead should read 80 PSI (551 kPa). Improper tire pressure can lead to tire failure which, in turn, can result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Revised certification labels containing the correct tire pressure (80 PSI / 551 kPa) will be mailed to owners along with instructions for proper installation. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a Forest River dealer for installation.
