Recall 2018302

The issue

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.

Description (français)

Dans certaines autocaravanes, les boulons en U de l'essieu arrière pourraient avoir été mal serrés lors de l'installation. Ces boulons pourraient se desserrer ou se briser. L'essieu arrière pourrait alors se séparer du véhicule. Cela pourrait causer une perte de maîtrise du véhicule et augmenter les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les boulons en U, ainsi que les resserrer au besoin.
