Medium riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Winnebago industries. On certain travel trailers a non-compliance exists whereby the affected trailers were produced with U.S. Tire Information and Cargo Capacity labels rather than the required Canadian formatted labels. The incorrect label may create confusion, possibly leading to the trailer being overloaded, which could affect vehicle handling and stability, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Winnebago will send revised certification labels to current dealers or owners with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the labels themselves, they can take the label to a Winnebago dealer for installation. Published 2016-11-21.
