Safety recall campaigns filed with NHTSA that cover this model year

Recalls apply to specific vehicles, not to every vehicle of a model year. Check your VIN with NHTSA or your manufacturer's dealer to confirm whether a recall affects your vehicle.

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.

Recall campaigns

2 campaigns cover this model year — what the defect is, what it could cause, and what the remedy is

SUSPENSION:REAR

Dec 11, 2001
697 units potentially affected
The defect: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MINI MOTOR HOMES. INCORRECT MOUNTING OF THE HELLWIG HELPER SPRING IN CONJUNCTION WITH A CHANGE IN THE STYLE OF SPRING BEING INSTALLED ALLOWED THE U BOLT SECURING THE HELPER SPRING TO THE OEM SPRING TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE REAR SWAY BAR.
The risk: THE SWAY BAR COULD BECOME NONFUNCTIONAL AND THE UNIT WOULD BECOME MORE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL ELIMINATE THE CONTACT BETWEEN THE HELPER SPRING U BOLT AND THE SWAY BAR MOUNTING BOLT. DEALERS WILL REMOVE, REVERSE THE MOUNTING, AND REINSTALL THE HELLWIG HELPER SPRING. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN SEPTEMBER 11, 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 JAYCO AT 1-219-825-5861.

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.
