Details
What's wrong: On certain 5th wheels, in excess towing conditions, stress cracks can begin to occur at the connecting point between the pin box side plate and the pin box rear tube causing a potential tearing of the pin box side plates and the rear pin box tube.
Why it matters: This could result in the unit being partially or fully detached from the tow vehicle, which resulting potential property damage or injury.
The fix: Dealers will reinforce the pin box connecting point. Owner notification began during January 2003.
