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.

THIS COMPLAINT INVOLVES A 2004 JAYCO TRAVEL TRAILER. THE FRESHWATER TANK IS HELD IN PLACE UNDER THE TRAILER BY TWO METAL STRAPS AT EITHER END OF THE TANK. THESE STRAPS ARE THEN SCREWED INTO THE FLOORBOARDS BY SMALL SCREWS. IN JULY OF 2008 THIS SYSTEM FAILED AND THE TANK FELL TO THE GROUND. IT WAS REPAIRED BY A JAYCO DEALER. ON 4/ 20/09 THE SYSTEM AGAIN FAILED. LUCKILY, NEITHER TIME WERE WE ON THE HIGHWAY OR THE RESULTS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN FATALITIES. I WOULD LIKE JAYCO TO REPAIR ALL TRAVEL TRAILERS WITH THIS SYSTEM SO WE CAN ALL REMAIN SAFE. *TR

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

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.
