COACHMEN RV COMPANY, LLC recall for tires, reported to NHTSA on Oct 16, 2007, covering about 193 vehicles.
The problem

The risk
As a result, the potential exists for the spare tire to become detached from the carrier assembly and fall to the road surface. Should the spare tire detach itself from the carrier while the vehicle is in motion, a crash may result.
The fix
