NHTSA recall 07V537000
Equipment · MONACO COACH CORPORATION
Details
What's wrong: On certain fifth wheel trailers, the design specifications for the slideout actuator and bracket location is between the two street side tires. The adapter bracket from the actuator to the slide room has square corners. If the fifth wheel trailers are fully loaded and hit any bumps, the tires may rub the square corner of the bracket. The rub may wear into the tread of the tire over time.
Why it matters: A tire blowout could occur, causing loss of control of the trailer which could result in a vehicle crash.
The fix: Dealers will trim the square corner of the lower rear part of the bracket giving clearance to the rear tire on the street side. This repair will be performed free of charge. The recall began on December 20, 2007.
