Defect Summary

The spare tire and wheel assembly is attached to the motorhome with a chain and pulley mechanism. If inadequate tension is not pre-loaded into this mechanism, road vibration can cause the friction clutch to slowly release or backdrive the mechanism, which causes the spare tire and wheel assembly to slowly lower and contact the road surface forward of the front axle.

Safety Consequence

If this happens a potential safety hazard and/or road obstruction could result.

Corrective Action

Dealers will install a square chain connector in the mechanism's tire support chain. Also, a redundant chain, bracket, and chain connector will be installed to physically connect the spare tire and wheel assembly to the undercarriage.
