What is wrong
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON THE WORKHORSE W22 CHASSIS, THE DROP DOWN BRACKETS USED TO ATTACH THE HITCH TO THE FRAME RAIL EXTENSIONS MAY NOT BE ADEQUATE.
What can happen
IN THE EVENT THAT THESE ANGLE BRACKETS WOULD FAIL, THE HITCH AND THE TOW VEHICLE COULD BECOME DISLODGED FROM THE MOTOR HOME INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Recall repairs are free of charge.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
