NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published
The defect
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET 2500/3500 VAN CHASSIS, WHILE REPLACING THE STEEL RIMS WITH ALUMINUM RIMS, INCORRECT VALVE STEMS WITH INCORRECT PRESSURE RATING LOWER THAN THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE ALLOWED FOR THE TIRES WERE INSTALLED.
The risk
SOME VALVES MAY LEAK AIR INCREASING THE RISK OF A TIRE FAILURE. THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
The remedy
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE VALVE STEMS. THE RECALL BEGAN IN NOVEMBER 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HOME & PARK AT 1-888-762-3873.
Notes
CUSTOMERS CAN ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
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.
