What's wrong?
The VIN tag on a 2024-2026 Carry-On 6X8GW2KPT trailer is the white certification label that identifies the trailer and lists key weight information. One of those values is the Gross Axle Weight Rating, or GAWR, which tells an owner the maximum weight the axle is rated to carry. The label is meant to match the axle installed on the trailer.
On affected trailers, the label was printed with the wrong axle rating because of incorrect data entry. It lists the GAWR as 3500 lbs. when the correct rating is 2000 lbs. That does not mean the axle became weaker; it means the trailer carries an incorrect loading guide. An owner relying on the label can load the trailer above the intended axle rating.
There is no warning sign before failure. The problem is visible only by checking the VIN tag and confirming whether the GAWR shown on that label is the corrected 2000 lbs. value.
