Medium riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Gulf stream coach. On certain travel trailers, the certification label may not contain the correct Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). The label incorrectly indicates a GVWR of 1,683 kg (3,710 lbs) instead of 1,338 kg (2,950 lbs). As a result, the vehicle could be overloaded, which would result in poor vehicle handling characteristics, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Gulf Stream will provide a corrected certification label to current owners and dealers with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a Gulf Stream dealer for installation. Published 2017-04-27.
