Component:

Trailer hitches

Manufactured:

Defect:

On certain class a and class b motor homes, the hitch may have been manufactured with a spacer plate that does not fit flush to the rear extension.

Consequence:

This causes the fasteners to be corner loaded when tightened which could cause the hitch to fail during usage causing a crash which could result in death and injury.

Dealers will install a new spacer plate and add six new bolts, washers and nuts to secure the spacer plate in place. the recall began on november 11, 2005. owners may contact four winds at 574-266-1111.
