NHTSA Campaign 05V253000

STRUCTURE

Issued by COUNTRY COACH INC · Reported Jun 2, 2005 · 17 vehicles affected

What's wrong

ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOME SHELLS SUPPLIED BY PREVOST CAR, INC., IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A LARGE QUANTITY OF ANTI-SEIZE COMPOUND WAS USED IN THE MOUNTING OF 3 RADIUS ROD SUPPORTS. THE BOLTS SECURING THE RADIUS ROD SUPPORTS CAN LOOSEN AND COULD COMPLETELY DETACH.

Consequence

A LOOSE ATTACHMENT SHOULD BE DETECTED AT REGULAR INSPECTIONS. THIS CONDITION WILL CREATE SOME UNUSUAL NOISE AND THE VEHICLE STABILITY WILL DETERIORATE GRADUALLY. IF A ROD IS DETACHED COMPLETELY, IT WILL CREATE A LARGE AMOUNT OF NOISE AND THE VEHICLE STABILITY WILL BE REDUCED. THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.

Remedy

PREVOST, IN CONJUNCTION WITH COUNTRY COACH, WILL REINSTALL RADIUS ROD SUPPORTS USING LOCTITE PRODUCT ON THE BOLTS. OWNERS MAY CONTACT PREVOST AT 1-418-831-5432 OR COUNTRY COACH AT 1-800-452-8015.
