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.
0
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.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

MAIN TUBE CHASSIS FAILURE. 8 INCH MAIN CHASSIS HAS 6 INCH WHEEL WELL SUPPORTS WELDED INTO PLACE. THE WEIGHT OF THE COACH OVER THE 3 AXLE SPAN IS BREAKING THE WELD AND CRUSHING THE TUBING DUE TO THOSE EXTRA 2 INCHES IT NEEDS. ECLIPSE MANUFACTURING REFERRED ME TO LIPPERT COMPONENTS FOR REPAIR OF THE CHASSIS. LIPPERT COMPONENTS, THE MANUFACTURER OF THE CHASSIS, HAS DECLINED ANY WARRANTY OR REPAIR SINCE THE 1ST YEAR WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. BOTH MANUFACTURES HAVE DENIED ANY CLAIMS. FAILURE ON THE HIGHWAY COULD CAUSE CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES, INJURY, AND POSSIBLE DEATH. AS OF NOW, THE WHEEL WELLS ARE 2 1/2 INCHES OUT OF SQUARE CAUSING TIRE RUB TO OCCUR AT TIMES. ALSO, THE DOOR IS HARD TO OPEN, THE ROOFLINE OVER THE WHEEL WELLS HAS STARTED TO LEAK (MEANING IT IS SEPARATING AT THE SEAMS INCLUDING THE FRONT CORNERS). THERE HAS ONLY BEEN ONE OWNER SINCE NEW PURCHASE. NO COLLISION DAMAGE HAS OCCURRED AND HAS BEEN USED ABOUT 4 TIMES A YEAR SINCE 2006. IT REMAINS IN STORAGE WHEN NOT IN USE. IT IS STILL IN VERY GOOD SHAPE FOR BEING 11 YEARS OLD. HOWEVER, THE CHASSIS SHOULD BE THE LAST THING TO GO WRONG FOR A TOY HAULER.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
