Recalls filed by Monaco
Steering #06V226000 · 2006 · 404 units
Problem: Certain motor home chassis built on Workhorse chassis may have been equipped with incorrect steering intermediate shafts. The spline can strip while the steering wheel is being turned.
Risk: This steering condition could result in a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Workhorse is conducting this recall (please see 06V148000) and will inspect and, if necessary, replace the steering intermediate shaft. Owners may contact Workhorse at 1-877-294-6773 or Monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
Engine And Engine Cooling #06V361000 · 2006 · 2,941 units
Problem: On certain motor homes built on Workhorse chassis and equipped with gm 8.1L v8 engines, improper hardening during the heat treatment process can cause the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clip to fracture, resulting in inadequate retention of the damper. If the damper becomes loose, fuel could be pumped by the fuel pump into the under hood area.
Risk: In the presence of an ignition source, a fire could result.
Fix: Workhorse is handling the owner notification and remedy for this campaign (please see 06V225). Dealers will replace the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clips on these engines free of charge. Owners may contact Workhorse at 877-294-6773 or Monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
