98V283000 · Trailer Hitches
Reported: 1998-11-05 (November 5, 1998)
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON SPARTAN CHASSIS. WELDS HAVE CRACKED ON THE FRAME PLATE WHERE THE HITCH TUBE WAS WELDED ON EACH SIDE OF THE FRAME.
Consequence: IN THE EVENT THE WELDS WOULD FAIL, THE HITCH AND THE TOW VEHICLE COULD BE SEPARATED FROM THE MOTOR HOME, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THESE WELDS AND, IF NECESSARY, REWELD THE HITCH TO THE FRAME PLATE.
