1 | Placard Label | |
1 | Tire Pressure Label |
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1: Find location of the Placard label on the driver’s door and wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth and allow to dry.
STEP 2: Peel off the backing of the new placard label and apply it over top of the original label with the same orientation
STEP 3: Find location of the tire pressure label on the B pillar of the driver side and wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth and allow to dry.
STEP 4: Peel off the backing of the new tire pressure label and apply it over top of the original label with the same orientation.
Chronology :
On Wed November 17 a customer called in to our Customer Service Department to ask what tire pressure he should use because the tire size on his vehicle was LT 225/75R16E and not LT245/75R16E as identified on the tire pressure label – an immediate investigation disclosed that the Approach file used to print the Placard and Tire Pressure labels for the 2021 Zion Slumber and Play models had the tire size of LT 245/75R16 E identified rather than the LT 225/75R16 E. The tire pressure values on the labels though are all correct.

Submission Date : JAN 14, 2022 NHTSA Recall No. : 21V-928 Manufacturer Recall No. : 2021-03 Manufacturer Information : Manufacturer Name : Roadtrek Inc. Address : 20 Tyler Street Cambridge 00 N1T0E4 Company phone : 519-745-1160 Population : Number of potentially involved : 212 Estimated percentage with defect : 100 % Vehicle Alterer Information : Vehicle 1 : 2021-2021 Roadtrek Zion Slumber and Play Descriptive Information : it was discovered that the Approach file used to print the Placard and Tire Pressure labels had an incorrect entry in the tire size cell on 2 of the new 2021 models. The tire size cell on these 2 new 2021 models was entered as LT 245/75R16 E rather than LT 225/75R16 E. There was no change order issued for these labels since the start of the production for these 2 models so it is assumed that all of the labels produced for these 2 models have had the incorrect tire size stated on the 2 labels installed on each vehicle produced to date. There have been a total of 94 Zion Slumber and 118 Play models produced for a total of 212 vehicles. Production Dates : DEC 11, 2020 – NOV 17, 2021 Description of Noncompliance : Description of the Noncompliance : Placard and Tire Pressure labels have tire size incorrectly identified as LT245/75R16 – E rather than LT225/75R16 – E FMVSS 1 : 110 – Tire selection and rims FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : tires on the vehicles are correct – pressures stated are correct – no impact on vehicle load ratings or capacity information – just the label information stating the tire width is incorrect – The tire size stated on the labels could indicate that a different tire size is acceptable but the LT 245/75R16 E, according to Dodge Ram Body Builder Support Group does not fit on the vehicle. But if the LT 245/75R16 was to be mounted on the vehicle it is possible that it would cause issues with the vehicle’s stability control system and an increased risk of a crash.
