The issue
On certain folding camping trailers, incorrect material was used in the manufacture of cable shafts within the power winch unit. If a shaft breaks, the roof could fall without warning into it's lowered position. This could result in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the cable shafts with updated versions.

Si un arbre se brisait, le toit pourrait s'abaisser complètement sans avertissement et blesser quelqu'un ou endommager des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les arbres par une version à jour.
