The issue
On certain fifth wheel and travel trailers, the HSM Quad Steps rivets that hold the steps together could loosen and fail. If the rivets were to fail, the steps could collapse which could cause a person to fall, resulting in injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the rivets with shoulder bolts.
Description (français)
Sur certaines roulottes à sellette et caravanes classiques, les rivets d'escalier à quatre marches HSM qui maintiennent les marches ensemble pourraient se desserrer et tomber. Si les rivets tombent, l'escalier pourrait s'affaisser, ce qui pourrait causer la chute d'une personne et, par conséquent, des blessures. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter et remplacer les rivets par des boulons à épaulement.
