Defect
Pacific Coachworks is recalling certain model year 2016 Rage'N toy haulers, model 27FBX, manufactured April 1, 2015, to April 30, 2016.

Risk
If the vehicle was loaded to the incorrect CCC on the label, the vehicle would be overloaded, possibly causing tire failure, and increasing the risk of a crash.

Pacific Coachworks will notify owners, and dealers will issue a corrected Federal Information Tag with the correct CCC information, free of charge. The recall began on June 27, 2016. Owners may contact Pacific Coachworks customer service at 1-951-686-7294.
