- Campaign:
- 06V361000 on 09/19/2006
- Component:
- Engine and engine cooling
- Affected:
- 2,941
- Defect:
- 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.
- Consequence:
- In the presence of an ignition source, a fire could result.
- Correction:
- 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.

- If the screw makes contact with the high voltage tracer on the pc board and someone would touch the screw head while the power is on, an electrical shock could occur causing injury.
- Correction:
- Dealers will inspect the back-up monitor to verify the operation of the monitor free of charge. if the monitor is operating properly, the repair will consist of replacing the incorrect screw with the specified screw and testing for proper operation. if the monitor is not operating properly on initial inspection, the monitor will be replaced using the correct screw. the recall began on february 9, 2007. owners may contact monaco at 877-332-9239.
