Recall 02V-004: 2002 Beaver Contessa, 2002 Beaver Marquis and 6 more
MONACO COACH CORP. recall for vehicle speed control, reported to NHTSA on Apr 9, 2002, covering about 232 vehicles.
The problem
On certain motor homes equipped with electronic throttle control/accelerator pedals supplied by williams controls industries, the weld attaching the clevis to the plate has insufficient penetration and could allow the clevis to separate from the plate.
The risk
If the clevis separated from the plate while the vehicle was in use, the vehicle would return to idle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace these pedals. Owner notification began september 9, 2002. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact monaco at 1-800-344-6332 or williams control at 1-503-684-8600.
