What's wrong?
The certification label on a 2014-2016 Starcraft Comet or Ar-One trailer is the permanent information tag that lists required vehicle details, including the correct tire size. Owners and service shops use that label to confirm which tires belong on the trailer before service or replacement. For trailers with the Extreme Package Option, that label is supposed to match the tires installed on the unit.
On affected trailers, the label states ST205/75R 14C, while the actual tire size is LT235/75R 15C. Starcraft traced the mismatch to a computer data entry error for specific Comet and Ar-One units. The trailer itself is not described as having the wrong tires installed; the problem is that the certification label gives the wrong tire information.
There is no warning sign before failure. Owners are most apt to notice the issue by comparing the certification label with the tires already mounted on the trailer, or when a dealer or tire shop checks the label during service.
Who's affected?
Spans the Comet and Ar-One across the 2014-2016 model years, with the same vehicle-label issue listed for each.
| 2016 Starcraft Comet | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
|---|---|
| 2015 Starcraft Ar-One | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| 2015 Starcraft Comet | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| 2014 Starcraft Comet | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| 2014 Starcraft Ar-One | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| 2016 Starcraft Ar-One | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| Units affected | 50 |
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?
If the wrong tires are installed because the certification label lists incorrect information, vehicle handling can be affected and crash risk increases. Have the label corrected before relying on it for tire replacement guidance, and confirm tire specifications with the dealer if tires are being changed. Repair is free at any franchised Starcraft dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2014-2016 Starcraft Comet or Ar-One trailer is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Starcraft dealer to schedule the free corrected certification-label installation, which fixes the wrong tire-size information.
- Bring the recall notice if Starcraft mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V400 and Starcraft recall 9902240 when you call.
- Confirm tire size before replacing tires; the old certification label lists ST205/75R 14C, but the recall says the correct tire size is LT235/75R 15C.
- Call Starcraft customer service at 1-800-945-4787 with questions about the label repair.
