Recall campaignsA 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.

94V061000

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL:CARRIER/RACK

Apr 1, 1994
121 units potentially affected
The defect: THE SPARE TIRE AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY IS ATTACHED TO THE MOTORHOME WITH A CHAIN AND PULLEY MECHANISM. IF INADEQUATE TENSION IS NOT PRE-LOADED INTO THIS MECHANISM, ROAD VIBRATION CAN CAUSE THE FRICTION CLUTCH TO SLOWLY RELEASE OR BACKDRIVE THE MECHANISM, WHICH CAUSES THE SPARE TIRE AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY TO SLOWLY LOWER AND CONTACT THE ROAD SURFACE FORWARD OF THE FRONT AXLE.
The risk: IF THIS HAPPENS A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD AND/OR ROAD OBSTRUCTION COULD RESULT.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A SQUARE CHAIN CONNECTOR IN THE MECHANISM'S TIRE SUPPORT CHAIN. ALSO, A REDUNDANT CHAIN, BRACKET, AND CHAIN CONNECTOR WILL BE INSTALLED TO PHYSICALLY CONNECT THE SPARE TIRE AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY TO THE UNDERCARRIAGE.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A 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.
Safety investigation
NHTSA 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.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
