EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
- The defect
- Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. (Gulf Stream) is recalling certain 2021 Vista Cruiser, Vintage Cruiser, Gulf Breeze, Matrix, Streamlite, Northern Express, Envision, and Geo travel trailers. The Federal Certification Label may have incorrect tire size and tire pressure information listed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification" and Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
- What it can cause
- The tires may be overinflated, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Gulf Stream will mail a replacement certification label and installation instructions, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 28, 2021. Owners may contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup.

How this campaign compares
At 246 vehicles this is a small campaign: 59% of the 14,932 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one are as large or larger. The middle campaign among them covers 487. It covers one model year, 2021, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2021, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Gulf Stream vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 32 times before this, most recently in September 2020 as 20V532000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. with NHTSA on May 12, 2021 as campaign 21V343000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
