- What is wrong
- Skyline is recalling 83 my 2007-2008 freestyle, rampage and trailrider model 281 recreational vehicles.

- Risk
- Drivers may experience tire damage and can cause or contribute to premature tire failure that could result in a loss of control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
