GULF STREAM COACH INC. recall for trailer hitches, reported to NHTSA on Sep 3, 2003, covering about 63 vehicles.
The problem
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.
The risk
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.
The fix
Gulf stream has developed a repair kit consisting of steel brackets, spacers, and mechanical fasteners. This kit can be sent directly to you or to a repair facility of your choosing. Owner notification is expected to begin during september 2003. Owners should contact gulf stream at 1-800-482-6456, ext. 3743.
