Component:
Equipment:other:labels
Manufactured:
05/31/1995 - 01/30/2000
Affected:
389
Defect:
Certain motor homes fail to comply with requirements of fmvss no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars." these vehicles have an inequitable weight distribution between the front left and right tires on the front axle. this weight inequity can cause the left front tire weight rating to be exceeded.
Consequence:
This could cause premature front tire tread wear or tire failure during normal driving. the premature tire tread wear or tire failure could lead to a loss of steering control.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the height control valves and the height control valve configuration reversed to remedy this noncompliance. owner notification began may 14, 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.

Component:
Service brakes, air:supply:compressor
Manufactured:
09/30/1999 - 03/30/2001
Affected:
667
Defect:
Vehicle description: motor homes equipped with cummins isc and isl diesel engines. the internal front bushing can spin, causing damage to the air compressor, and possibly to the spindle drive at the rear face of the air compressor which is used to provide power to the vehicle hydraulic pump. failure of the air compressor's spindle drive could lead to loss of power assist if the hydraulic pump ceases to operate.
Consequence:
Without power assist, the vehicle becomes very difficult to turn and could possibly result in a vehicle crash.
Correction:
Cummins will notify country coach customers and replace the air compressor free of charge. owner notification began march 30, 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 cummins customer assistance center 1-800-343-7357.

Affected:
550
Defect:
Certain motor homes fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars." these motor homes were erroneously assigned inadequate cold tire inflation pressures and inadequate axle weight ratings on the front and/or rear axles as a result of mathematical miscalculations.
Consequence:
This could cause premature tire tread wear or tire failure during normal driving. the premature tire tread wear or tire failure could lead to a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the front and/or rear tires. in some instances, the motor homes may only have an inadequate fawr and/or rawr stated on the federal tire label and only the federal tire label will be replaced. owner notification is expected to begin august 28, 2002. 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.
