NHTSA recall 12V532000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Airstream, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: The brake hose may flex near the fitting on the brake assembly and lead to hose fatigue. Also, during suspension travel, the brake hose may rub on the underside of the trailer.
Why it matters: As a result of flexing or rubbing, the brake hose may fail causing a loss of brake pressure, reducing braking performance. The loss of braking ability could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Airstream will notify owners, and dealers will replace and reroute the brake lines, free of charge. The recall began on November 19, 2012.
