Defect

Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland) is recalling certain model year 2016 Torque T27, T28, T29, and T33 travel trailers manufactured May 11, 2015, to May 29, 2015. The affected trailers have Federal Certification labels that may be missing the gross axle weight rating (GAWR) information. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Safety risk

The vehicle operator may unintentionally overload the trailer due to the missing GAWR information, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Heartland will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incorrect certification label with a corrected label, free of charge. The recall began on July 29, 2015. Owners may contact Heartland customer service at 1-877-262-8032. Heartland's number for this recall is 99.01.22.
