Recall 93V086000
Trailer Hitches — Rockwood · reported 11 May 1993 · 155 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
THE MOUNTING BRACKET FOR THE REAR TRAILER HITCH MAY BREAK BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO WITHSTAND THE LOADS OF AN ATTACHED TRAILER.
The risk
SHOULD THE TRAILER HITCH MOUNTING BRACKET BREAK, THETRAILER WOULD SEPARATE FROM THE MOTORHOME AND WOULD BE ATTACHED ONLY BY THESAFETY CHAINS, CAUSING POSSIBLE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE TRAILER AND/OR THEMOTORHOME, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
The fix
INSTALL ADDITIONAL SUPPORT BRACKETS TO THE TRAILER HITCH MOUNTING BRACKET.
SYSTEM: EQUIPMENT; TRAILER HITCH.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: DIESEL PUSHER MOTORHOMES WITH A REAR TRAILER HITCHBRACKET.
