What the defect is

The tandem axle suspension systems have bottom coil spring boxes that may have improper welds, or bolts that may be of an inappropriate grade, or bolts that may have been improperly torqued at time of installation. Consequence of defect: under ordinary use, the bottom coil spring box or bolts may fail, which may cause loss of a coil spring from motorhome. The loss of the coil springs could go unnoticed, posing no danger to the occupants of the motorhome. However, the loose springs may be a hazard to other motorists.

What gets fixed

REPLACING COIL SPRING BOXES OR BOLTS AND INSTALLING A SAFETY STRAP ON TWO COIL SPRINGS.

Your rights

A safety recall repair is free. Under US federal law the manufacturer must fix a safety defect at no cost to you — no charge for parts, labor or diagnosis — whether or not you are the original owner. A dealer cannot charge you for recall work, and cannot require you to have bought the vehicle from them.

That entitlement is not unlimited. It applies where the vehicle was first sold less than 15 years before the recall was announced — 5 years for tires. Past that a manufacturer may still do the repair free of charge, and many do, but they are no longer obliged to. This recall was reported on 17 September 1985.

To arrange the repair, contact any franchised dealer for the brand. If a dealer refuses the work or tries to charge for it, you can report that to NHTSA at nhtsa.gov/recalls or on 1-888-327-4236.

This page describes the recall, not any one car. To see which recalls cover a specific vehicle, search by make, model and year.

A VIN lookup here identifies your vehicle and shows recalls issued for that make, model and year. It cannot tell you what is still open on your individual car - only the manufacturer knows that. Search by VIN instead, or check your VIN at nhtsa.gov for whether a recall is still open on your individual car.
