Xtreme Outdoors recall for tires, reported to NHTSA on Jul 30, 2020, covering about 145 vehicles.
The problem

The curb weight, Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) are understated on the certification label, affecting how well the trailer may be towed. As such, these trailers fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire selection and Rims" and 49 CFR part 567, "Certification."
The risk
There is a risk that the trailer may exceed the towing capacity of the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The fix
Xtreme will notify owners, and dealers will send new certification labels for all trailers affected by this recall, free of charge. Unsold units that are outside Xtreme Outdoors control will also be issued new paperwork with the correct information. The recall began September 22, 2020. Owners may contact Xtreme customer service at 1-888-469-9688.
