2014 Sundance 2880RLT Recall 14V058: GVWR Label Error

Recall 14V058 affects 29 2014 Sundance 2880RLT travel trailers for an incorrect GVWR label. Repair is free at any franchised Sundance dealer.

Sundance is recalling 29 2014 2880RLT travel trailers because the certification label lists a 16,500-pound gross vehicle weight rating instead of the correct 13,500-pound rating. Loading the trailer to the wrong label can cause tire or suspension failure, poor handling, and increased crash risk; the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The Federal Certification label on the 2014 Sundance 2880RLT is the factory weight label for the travel trailer. It tells an owner, dealer, or inspector the gross vehicle weight rating, which is the maximum loaded weight the trailer is certified to carry. That number matters when cargo, water, propane, and equipment are added before a trip.

On affected trailers, the label lists the gross vehicle weight rating as 16,500 pounds. The correct rating is 13,500 pounds. The trailer itself is not described as having a broken axle, frame, or brake part in this recall; the defect is that the certification label gives the wrong rating. If someone relies on the higher number, the trailer can be loaded above its certified limit.

There is no warning sign before failure. The problem is printed on the label, so an owner would notice it only by comparing the label with the corrected recall information or having a dealer inspect the certification label.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.

What's the safety risk?

An incorrect weight label can lead an owner to load the trailer beyond its specified rating. Overloading strains tires and suspension, hurts handling, and increases the risk of a crash. Confirm the trailer's load rating before towing and schedule the label correction. Repair will be free at any franchised Sundance dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2014 Sundance 2880RLT is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Sundance dealer about the corrected Federal Certification label that shows the trailer's 13,500-pound GVWR.
  3. Use Heartland's owner notice if you received it. If not, reference recall number 14V058 when you call.
  4. Avoid loading the trailer above the corrected 13,500-pound GVWR until the label is replaced.

What happens at the repair

The recall repair is a label replacement. Once the dealer repair is available, a Sundance technician replaces the incorrect Federal Certification label with a corrected label at no charge. The corrected label shows the proper gross vehicle weight rating for the 2014 2880RLT trailer, so the trailer paperwork matches its certified rating. Parts and labor are covered by the recall. The recall began on March 10, 2014, and Heartland listed campaign number 99-01-16 for dealer handling.
