The problem

The risk

Overinflating tires increases the risk of tire failure and property damage.

Keystone will mail to consumers the corrected label or the customer will have the option for dealers to install the label free of charge. The safety recall began on february 19, 2012. Owners may contact keystone customer service at 1-866-425-4369.
