What's wrong?
The spare tire on a 2024 Jayco Travel Trailer Jay Feather is the temporary tire meant to get the trailer off the road after a flat. The tire placard is the label that tells an owner and service shop the correct tire and rim information for that trailer. On these trailers, that placard information is based on a 15-inch spare tire.
The problem is that Jayco Travel Trailer installed a 14-inch spare tire during production instead of the correct 15-inch spare. That means the spare tire on the trailer does not match the tire information Jayco used for the placard. Jayco Travel Trailer says the issue came from a production assembly error, and the recall addresses a failure to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is most likely to find the problem by checking the spare tire size or when the spare is needed after a flat.
