Details
What's wrong: On certain motor homes equipped with caterpillar diesel engines, the straps that support the converter mufflers to the chassis, these welds are causing the straps to fail.
Why it matters: When the straps fail, the muffler can drop to the ground.
The fix: Caterpillar is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Caterpillar will have the converter muffler straps replaced free of charge.
