NHTSA recall 07V483000
Tires · Coachmen RV Company, LLC
Details
What's wrong: On certain motor homes, the spare tire carrier assembly mounted under the rear of the unit is the incorrect model to properly support the spare tire.
Why it matters: As a result, the potential exists for the spare tire to become detached from the carrier assembly and fall to the road surface. Should the spare tire detach itself from the carrier while the vehicle is in motion, a crash may result.
The fix: Dealers will install the correct spare tire system and also a secondary mechanical back-up latch. The recall began on December 5, 2007.
