NHTSA recall 02V153000
Trailer Hitches · Winnebago Industries, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: On certain motor homes, an improperly mounted trailer hitch may have been installed on these motor homes. The trailer hitch may not have all the required fasteners attached to the motor home.
Why it matters: If the hitch is utilized, it could stress the existing fasteners. A condition could exist that would shear or loosen the remaining fastener causing the hitch to separate from the vehicle, resulting in bodily injury and/or property damage.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the trailer hitch, and if necessary, add or replace the mounting hardware. Owner notification began June 21, 2002.
