What's wrong?
The certification label on a 2020-2021 Black Tie Optimum Restroom Trailer is the plate that tells an owner or service shop the trailer's required tire size, wheel rim size, and Gross Axle Weight Rating. GAWR is the maximum weight each axle is rated to carry. That label is supposed to match the tires, rims, and axle rating built into that specific trailer.
On these trailers, the label information was copied from a different trailer design. The affected Optimum Restroom Trailer uses a different tire and rim size, so the printed tire, rim, and axle rating information is wrong. The trailer itself is not being recalled because a part broke; the problem is that the safety and loading information on the label does not match the trailer.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner looking only at the old label would see incorrect tire, rim, and GAWR information, and the fix is a revised certification label with the correct information.
Who's affected?
The scope crosses the 2020 and 2021 model years and centers on certification-label information for tire, rim, GVWR, and GAWR details.

What's the safety risk?
Incorrect tire, rim, and GAWR information can lead an owner to load the Optimum Restroom Trailer beyond its rated capacity, which increases crash risk. Before hauling, confirm the correct weight and tire information with Black Tie and avoid loading past the corrected rating. Repair is free at any franchised Black Tie dealer.
