What's wrong?

The weight label on a 2015-2016 Highland Ridge Tt Mesa Ridge, Roamer, Highlander, or Light trailer tells an owner and service shop how much weight the trailer is rated to carry. It lists ratings such as Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, the maximum loaded trailer weight, and cargo carrying capacity, the amount of cargo the trailer can safely add. Those numbers guide loading decisions before a trip.

On affected trailers, the data used to calculate the weight ratings was entered incorrectly. That human error put wrong information on the existing labels, so the label can show a rating that does not match the trailer's actual capacity. If an owner loads the trailer based on the wrong label, the trailer can be overloaded.

There is no warning sign before failure. The problem is the label information itself, so an owner will not hear, smell, or feel a separate symptom before the trailer is loaded beyond its rated limit.

What's the safety risk?

Overloading from an incorrect weight-rating label can lead to tire failure and increase the risk of a crash. Until the label or required axle and tire repair is completed, avoid loading the trailer near its stated limit and arrange service soon. Repair is free at any franchised Highland Ridge Tt dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2015-2016 Highland Ridge Tt Mesa Ridge, Roamer, Highlander, or Light is included in this recall.

  3. Ask the dealer whether your trailer also needs the axle and tire repair described in Highland Ridge Tt recall 16V092.

  5. Avoid loading the trailer to the listed maximum weight until the corrected label and any required axle or tire work are complete.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Highland Ridge Tt technician installs the corrected weight label at no charge. For the HT31RGR Highland Toy Hauler, the repair also includes installing two heavier axles and five larger tires. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Highland has a general reimbursement plan on file, so if you already paid for this label, axle, or tire repair before the recall work, bring your receipts or repair documents to the service desk and ask how to submit them for reimbursement.
