Suspension #19V702000 · 2019 · 908 units
Problem: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2017 Pinnacle fifth wheel trailers. The suspension on these vehicles may allow the tires to contact the structure when under a certain load, which can cause damage to the tires.
Risk: If the tire becomes damaged, causing premature tire wear, it can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
Fix: Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the condition of the leaf spring, rubber equalizer and bump stop clearance, and provide replacement of the leave spring or rubber equalizer if necessary. This repair will be done free of charge. Interim notices notifying owners of safety risk were mailed December 2, 2019. The recall began December 20, 2019. Owners may contact Jayco customer…
