On certain trailers, the safety chain installed does not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of the trailer. If the trailer were to become uncoupled from the vehicle, underrated safety chains could fail causing the trailer to separate from the towing vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the underrated safety chains.
On certain travel trailers, the laminated plastic touch pad on the top of the power tongue jack may crack and/or separate. This could result in water entering the internal circuitry of the touch pad, potentially causing unintended extension or retraction of the power tongue jack. If this were to occur while the vehicle was in motion, it could result in loss of control and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the "Smart Jack" power tongue jack assembly with an updated version with improved water protection.
On certain travel trailers, the generators exhaust pipe is mounted to close to the plastic underbelly. Overtime, this could cause the plastic underbelly to melt increasing the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will lower the exhaust pipe away from the plastic underbelly.
