The defect
Certain motor homes built on ford E-450 chassis fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, 'tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars.' the tire pressure IS incorrectly listed on the label for the rear tires.
The risk
At the incorrectly stated pressure, the rear tires are unable to support the gross axle weight rating (gawr) for the rear axle.

Owners and dealers will be mailed supplementary tire labels containing the correct rear tire inflation information. owners may contact ford at 1-800-392-3673 or four winds at 1-574-266-1111.
