NHTSA recall 17V066000
Electrical System, Service Brakes · Jayco, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2017 Seismic and Seismic Wave fifth-wheel recreational trailers equipped with hydraulic brakes. In the affected vehicles, the break away switch may not be properly wired.
Why it matters: If the break away switch does not function correctly due to improper wiring and the trailer disconnects from the tow vehicle during transit, the fifth wheel brakes will not automatically apply, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will correct the wiring, free of charge. The recall began on March 13, 2017.
