NHTSA recall 06V352000
Engine And Engine Cooling · GEORGIE BOY MFG., LLC
Details
What's wrong: On certain motor homes built on workhorse chassis and equipped with gm 8.1L v8 engines, improper hardening during the heat treatment process can cause the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clip to fracture, resulting in inadequate retention of the damper. If the damper becomes loose, fuel could be pumped by the fuel pump into the under hood area.
Why it matters: In the presence of an ignition source, a fire could result.
The fix: Workhorse is handling the owner notification and remedy for this campaign (please see 06V225). Dealers will replace the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clips on these engines free of charge.
