• Pneus#201751220 octobre 2017

  4 unités visées

  Dans certaines caravanes classiques, le bras de la pièce coulissante pourrait ne pas présenter assez de jeu à partir du pneu avant du côté du conducteur. Dans certaines circonstances, le pneu pourrait entrer en contact avec la tête de montage de la pièce coulissante, ce qui pourrait provoquer une défaillance de pneu pouvant entraîner une perte de maîtrise du véhicule. Cela augmenterait les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront installer une trousse de levage entre le ou les essieux et le châssis, afin de surélever la pièce coulissante à l'écart du pneu.

  La pièce coulissante du support de fixation de certaines caravanes classiques pourraient ne pas assurer à la tête de fixation coulissante un jeu suffisant avec la bande de roulement du pneu avant côté conducteur. Si le véhicule n'est pas remorqué de niveau, ou si la charge est mal distribuée sur la suspension (de façon inégale), il se pourrait que le pneu entre en contact avec la tête de fixation coulissante, ce qui pourrait causer une perte rapide d'air et/ou une crevaison et augmenter les risques de collision avec blessures et/ou dommages matériels. Mesures correctives : Les concessionnaires doivent installer un nouveau support de fixation coulissant pour assurer un jeu adéquat avec le pneu avant côté conducteur.
