Accessories#2018561October 12, 2018
148 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the liquid propane (LP) hose could rub on the bottom metal plate of the Norcold refrigerator, and may develop a leak. Leaking propane in the presence of an ignition source could result in an explosion or fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the routing of the LP hose, cut away a portion of the refrigerator’s bottom metal plate and install a new grommet to ensure proper clearance of the LP hose, as required.
Suspension#2018302June 8, 2018
34 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the rear axle U-bolts may not have been properly tightened during installation. These bolts could loosen or break, potentially resulting in a separation of the rear axle from the vehicle. This could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and tighten the U-bolts as necessary.
