What's wrong?
The Federal Placard on a 2016 Prime Time Spartan trailer is the tire and weight label mounted on the vehicle. It tells an owner or service shop which tire size and load range belong on the trailer, along with the inflation guidance used when setting tire pressure. That label matters because trailer tires are selected for the load they carry.
On affected Spartan trailers, the placard lists ST225/75R15 Load Range E tires, but the correct tire specification is ST225/75R15 Load Range D. The tires installed on the trailer have a lower maximum pressure than the placard states. If an owner fills the tires to the higher placard pressure, the tires are overinflated compared with their actual rating.
There is no warning sign before failure. The issue is the information on the label, so an owner can see normal-looking tires and still be following the wrong pressure instruction.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.
What's the safety risk?
Over inflated tires can fail suddenly and increase the risk of a crash. There is no warning sign before failure, so confirm the correct tire pressure with the dealer before towing or driving, and schedule the recall repair soon if your VIN is included. Repair is free at any franchised Prime Time dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2016 Prime Time Spartan is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Prime Time dealer to schedule the free corrected Federal placard that lists the right tire size and pressure guidance.
- Bring the recall notice if Prime Time mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V875 when you call.
- Do not inflate the trailer tires from the incorrect placard before the corrected label is installed.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Prime Time technician checks the Federal placard on the trailer and replaces the incorrect label with a corrected placard showing the proper ST225/75R15 Load Range D tire information. The placard correction is free under the recall, and parts and labor are covered. Prime Time's general reimbursement plan covers documented out-of-pocket costs tied to this placard correction. Bring repair paperwork to the service desk if you already paid for a related placard repair.
