Details

What's wrong: On certain motor homes, the spare wheel,when installed on the front axle, may contact the front brake caliper mounting brackets and the driver may experience a grinding/scraping noise in the front with the spare wheel installed.

Why it matters: This could cause premature wheel failure resulting in a loss of vehicle control or a crash could occur.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and install the correct spare wheel. The recall began on November 5, 2007.
