2007 Fleetwood Avalon recalls

Recall 07V-464: Equipment

Reported Oct 3, 2007 · 2,129 vehicles affected · FLEETWOOD FOLDING TRAILER, INC.

Problem: On certain recreational vehicles, the power lift roof system, which consists of a power lift motor and current limiter controller, generates excessive amounts of impact torque if the power lift is operated with the 30a power cord plugged into a 110v AC power source (With or without a battery).

Risk: This could cause failure in one of the shear pins resulting in damage to the trailer's lift system. This could allow the roof to free-fall from the raised position, possibly resulting in personal injury, vehicle and/or property damage.

Fix: Owners will be provided with two warning stickers that explains the proper function of the power lift accessory using a battery only. One sticker will be placed at the rear of the trailer next to the current limiter. The second sticker will be placed next to the 30a power cord outlet. In addition, fleetwood folding trailers will send a copy of the operation manual that emphasizes the battery-only operation of this trailer accessory. The recall began on february 8, 2008. Owners may contact fleetwood folding trailers at 1-814-443-7367.

Equipment · reported Apr 25, 2008
No incidents, crashes, or injuries - this complaint involves a recall notice and the remedy. Fleetwood sent us a recall on our 2007 avalon, as the power lift was causing damage to the trailer when it is powered by the 30a (110v) power supply. I spoke with a customer services person (Bill) in the somerset, pa, plant who stated that the lift was never intended to be used with the 110v power, because it creates too much torque which can shear the stops and cause the roof to fall down. He explained that the remedy is to install a lower torque unit, and place two stickers warning the owner/operator…
