Description

The Federal Placard states an incorrect axle rating of 4400 lbs, instead of the correct rating of 3500 lbs, which can cause the vehicle to become overloaded. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification." An overloaded vehicle can cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.
