Latches/Locks/Linkages #07V282000 · 2007 · 243 units

Problem: On certain trailers, the lock of the side ramp door may not be properly latched by the consumer, could fail to lock properly, or the attaching hardware could come loose.

Risk: Any of these possibilities could result in the door opening upwards while in transit. The opening of this ramp door could impact nearby persons or objects resulting in personal injury or vehicle and properly damage.

Fix: Dealers will modify the set screw and install a secondary latch mechanism free of charge. The recall began on July 23, 2007. Owners should contact Thor California at 888-697-8467.
