- Defect:
- Vehicle description: motor homes. misalignment of the motor homes' front brake hoses during sharp turning movements can weaken the hoses through rubbing and/or chaffing on the steering tires or components of the frame. a sudden loss of braking on a steering wheel could occur if the hose ruptures, causing the motor home to pull sharply to one side.
- Consequence:
- A low air situation could develop and result in the application of the rear spring brakes resulting in a sudden stop increasing the risk of a crash.
- Correction:
- Dealers will replace and re-route the front brake hoses. owner notification began november 26, 2001. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact country coach at 1-800-452-8015.
