Affected:

Defect:
Airstream is recalling certain model year 2006-2009 airstream classic recreational vehicles manufactured between may 2005 and april 2009. the brake hose may flex near the fitting on the brake assembly and lead to hose fatigue. also, during suspension travel, the brake hose may rub on the underside of the trailer.

Correction:
