Details

What's wrong: On certain fifth wheel and conventional travel trailers equipped with aluminum wheels may not have had the proper wheel lug nut torque applied. Additionally, paint applied to the mating surface of the hub may cause the lug nuts to be more sensitive to loosening during the initial settling-in of components and after a wheel has been removed for service.

Why it matters: A wheel separation could occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will inspect, repair, or replace any damaged wheels, lug nuts, lug studs, and mating surfaces. Dealers will also remove paint film from the mating surfaces. The recall began on August 5, 2004. Owners should contact fleetwood at 1-800-509-3418.
