Heartland is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Cyclone fifth wheel trailers for failing to comply
with the requirements of Part 567, "Certification." It has been determined that these vehicles were
manufactured with incorrect axle information printed on the federal certification label. The actual axle
rating (GAWR) is 5,080 lbs and is listed as 5,200 lbs on the label. A vehicle with the axles loaded beyond
the specified weight rating may result in axle failure leading to poor vehicle handling and increasing the
risk of a crash. The Federal certification label will be replaced free of charge with one that has the correct
GAWR listed for each axle. The recall is expected to begin during April 2010. Owners may contact
Heartland at 1-877-262-8032.

Coachmen is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 Prism and Freelander recreational vehicles built on
2008 Sprinter chassis. The engine control module may not actuate the EGR valve sufficiently to prevent
soot accumulation, resulting in improper valve operation or sticking. Improper valve operation may
cause excessive exhaust emissions, illumination of the malfunction indicator lamp and a vehicle limp-in
condition increasing the risk of a crash. Coachmen is working with Chrysler to remedy this campaign
and will reprogram the vehicle's engine control module free of charge. The safety recall began on
January 8, 2010. Owners may contact Coachmen at 1-800-453-6064 and Chrysler at 1-800-853-1403.


Forest River is recalling certain model year 2008 and 2009 Charleston motor homes manufactured
between August 16, 2007 and September 23, 2008, equipped with Kongsberg automotive adjustable
brake pedals. The adjustable brake pedal arm may loosen allowing the arm to rotate around its shaft and
swing in front of the accelerator pedal, reducing braking function. A loose brake pedal increases the risk
of a crash. Forest River is working with Freightliner to notify owners. Repairs will be conducted by
Freightliner free of charge. The safety recall began on January 11, 2010. Owners may contact Daimler
Trucks Warranty Campaigns Department at 1-800-647-0712.


Airstream is recalling certain model year 2010 Flying Cloud travel trailers. These vehicles were built
with axles rated at 3,800 lbs. The vehicles should have been built with axles rated at 4,400 lbs. Towing a
vehicle with the axle loaded beyond the specified weight rating may result in axle failure leading to poor
vehicle handling increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the axles with one's rated at 4,400 lbs
free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2010. Owners may contact Airstream at 1-877-246-7731.


Monaco RV is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 Holiday Rambler Campmaster recreational
vehicles for failing to comply with part 567, "Certification," and Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims." The labels that list the trailer's gross axle weight ratings, tire
information, and cargo carrying capacity may be incorrect. Tire blowout may happen without warning
causing a crash possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death. Dealers will mail to
consumers the corrected label along with installation instructions, or the customer will have the option for
dealers to install the label free of charge. The recall began on March 19, 2010. Owners may contact
Monaco RV at 1-877-466-6226.


Winnebago is recalling certain model year 2010 Sightseer D33C, Vista E30W and Itasca Sunova D33C
and Sunstar E30W motor homes manufactured July 16, 2009 through January 14, 2010. These vehicles
may have wiring from an incomplete 120v circuit that may become energized. This wire assembly was
placed for an option that was not ordered or installed. The connector at the end of this circuit is not
covered leaving an opening that someone could make contact with an energized conductor. A person
touching this connector may suffer an electrical shock, resulting in personal injury or death. Dealers will
install the missing conductors and receptacle. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety
recall began on March 3, 2010. Owners may contact Winnebago at 1-641-585-6939.


Triple E is recalling certain model year 2010 Regency GT 29DB and GT28DB motorhomes equipped
with Flexsteel easy-bed sofa for failing to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 207,
"Seating System." The easy bed sofa was manufactured without a rollover safety locking latch. In the
event of a motor vehicle roll over the easy bed may want to open, with the weight of a seat belted
occupant causing the occupant to be injured from the seat belt. Dealers will install a locking latch on the
easy bed sofa free of charge. The safety recall began on March 12, 2010. Owners may contact Triple E at
1-204-325-4361.


Entegra Coach has notified NHTSA about a defect in certain model year 2009-2010 Anthem and
Cornerstone motorhomes manufactured from March 24, 2009 and February 16, 2010 built on Spartan
chassis and equipped with pneumatic and hydraulic adjustable brake pedal assemblies supplied by
Kongsberg Automotive. The drive pin which secures the brake pedal arm to the balance assembly may
become disengaged, this may cause a reduction in vehicle braking and/or cause the brake pedal to move
out of position and interfere with throttle pedal function. A reduction in braking or interference with the
throttle pedal could result in a crash. The remedy will be performed by Spartan and will replace the
adjustable brake pedal assembly free of charge. Please see Spartan's defect report 09V-478. The safety
recall began on February 18, 2010. Owners may contact Spartan at 1-800-543-4277.


Winnebago has notified NHTSA of a defect in certain model year 2008-2009 motorhomes fitted with
Ricon public use lifts. The restraint belt on these lifts was designed to prevent the lift from moving,unless the tongue of the belt is fully engaged and latched in the buckle. Ricon has discovered, however,
that it is possible for the operator to insert the belt tongue into the buckle without fully engaging the
latching mechanism. In this case, the restraint belt would appear to be latched, and the operator could run
the lift. If the restraint belt tongue is not fully engaged into the restraint belt buckle, and latched, the lift
may operate with an occupant on the platform. The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move
without the restraint belt properly buckled. Winnebago is working with Ricon and Ricon will be
handling the remedy for this campaign. Please see Ricon's defect report 09E-060. Ricon will provide
customers with a warning decal and a DVD-based training aid. The manufacturer has not yet provided an
owner notification schedule. Owners may contact Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884 or by

Heartland has notified NHTSA of a noncompliance on certain model year 2010-2011 Trail Runner and
North Country travel trailers for failing to comply with the requirements of part 567, "Certification." The
Federal identification label does not contain the correct gross axle weight rating (GAWR) information.
The label states the GAWR for each axle to be 5,200 lbs when the actual GAWR is 5,080 lbs. Towing a
vehicle with the axles loaded beyond the specified weight rating may result in axle failure leading to poor
vehicle handling and increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage or personal injury. Dealers
will mail to consumers the corrected label or the customer will have the option for dealers to install the
label free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during April 2010. Owners may contact Heartland's
Warranty/Service Department by email at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , or by phone at 1-877-262-8032.
