What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Braxton Creek RV (Braxton) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Bushwhacker 10FB and 2021 Bushwhacker 10SS travel trailers. The lag bolts are of an insufficient size and may pull through the floor, causing the floor to separate from the frame of the trailer.

The risk

If not secured by the lag bolts, the body of the trailer could shift or separate from the frame, increasing the risk of a crash, injury or death.

The remedy

Braxton will notify owners, and dealers will bolt the floor onto the frame using 3/8" x 2" bolts and washers with a lock nut, free of charge. The recall began October 2, 2020. Owners may contact Braxton customer service at 1-260-768-7932.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

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.
