## What is wrong

CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS."  THESE VEHICLES HAVE AN INEQUITABLE WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION BETWEEN THE FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT TIRES ON THE FRONT AXLE.  THIS WEIGHT INEQUITY CAN CAUSE THE LEFT FRONT TIRE WEIGHT RATING TO BE EXCEEDED.


## What can happen

THIS COULD CAUSE PREMATURE FRONT TIRE TREAD WEAR OR TIRE FAILURE DURING NORMAL DRIVING.  THE PREMATURE TIRE TREAD WEAR OR TIRE FAILURE COULD LEAD TO A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL.


## The remedy

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE HEIGHT CONTROL VALVES AND THE HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE CONFIGURATION REVERSED TO REMEDY THIS NONCOMPLIANCE.  OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN MAY 14, 2001.   OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT COUNTRY COACH AT 1\-800\-452\-8015.


## Notes

ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1\-888\-DASH\-2\-DOT \(1\-888\-327\-4236\).
