Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

Latest Sep 25, 2007
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

PARKING BRAKE

Sep 25, 2007
15 units potentially affected
The defect: ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON PREVOST CHASSIS AND EQUIPPED WITH BENDIX SR-7 SPRING BRAKE MODULATING VALVES, THE INTERNAL RUBBER CHECK VALVE MAY LEAK CAUSING A DELAY IN THE APPLICATION OF THE SPRING BRAKES TO PARK THE VEHICLE AFTER THE OPERATOR PULLS THE DASH VALVE BUTTON.
The risk: THIS COULD CAUSE A DELAY OR FAILURE IN APPLYING THE PARKING BRAKES WHICH COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE ROLL AWAY, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy: COUNTRY COACH IS WORKING WITH PREVOST AND BENDIX TO REPAIR THESE VEHICLES (PLEASE SEE 07E-037). BENDIX WILL INSTALL A CHECK VALVE REPAIR KIT FOR THE AFFECTED SR-7 SPRING BRAKE MODULATING VALVE FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 25, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT BENDIX AT 1-440-329-9000, PREVOST AT 1-418-831-2046, OR COUNTRY COACH AT 1-800-547-8015.

Filed Jan 15, 2008

WE HAVE A BRAND NEW COUNTRY COACH MAGNA 630 RV. THE RV IS DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN ON THE ROAD AND THE STEERING CALLS FOR CONSTANT CORRECTION AND WANDERS. THE WANDER IS EXCESSIVE AND EASILY DRIFTS FROM SIDE TO SIDE AND HAS NEARLY CAUSED ACCIDENTS. WE FOUND TWO OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. COUNTRY COACH KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM BUT HAS NO SOLUTION YET. WE WANT TO PUT MAKE YOU AWARE FOR YOUR RECORDS IN CASE THERE IS AN ACCIDENT AS THE RESULT. *TR
