2007 Four Winds Hurricane recalls

Recall 09V-204: Service Brakes, Hydraulic

Reported Jun 10, 2009 · 684 vehicles affected · FOUR WINDS INTERNATIONAL

Problem: Four winds is recalling 684 my 2002-2006 infinity, my 2002-2007 windesport, my 2004-2008 hurricane, my 2006-2007 megallan and my 2008 fun mover motor homes equipped with axles that include bosch zops or zoht pin slide hydraulic disc brakes. When combined with occasional or seasonal vehicle operation may experience calipers sticking in the applied position. This can result in abnormal heat generation at the wheel end causing brake drag. The driver would normally have warning of the brake drag if undetected by the driver.

Risk: The driver would normally detect the brake drag but if undetected the temperature increase at the wheel end can eventually lead to soft pedal conditions due to brake fluid boil, and possible extended stopping distance increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the necessary components free of charge. Workhorse is handling the remedy for this campaign please see 09v-110. Workhorse will conduct the owner and dealer notification. Owners may contact workhorse at 1-877-246-7731.

Recall 08V-565: Steering

Reported Oct 24, 2008 · 49 vehicles affected · FOUR WINDS INTERNATIONAL

Problem: Four winds is recalling 49 my 2007-2008 hurrican and windsport motor homes built on workhorse recreational vehicle chassis. The castle nut that retains the steering drag link to the pitman arm may have been improperly torqued during assembly. The improper torque may have damaged the castle nut and compromised the integrity of the connection.

Risk: If the drag link were to separate from the pitman arm, the driver would not have directional control of the vehicle possibly causing a crash.

Fix: Four winds is working with workhorse to replace and properly tighten the castle nut that retains the steering drag link to the pitman arm (Please see 08v442). Owners may contact workhorse at 1-877-946-7731 or four winds at 1-800-860-5658.

Our motorhome had 3 separate tire failures on a trip from houston, tx to oshkosh, wi. ( 2 in tx and 1 in il - both front and one dually) a goodyear dealer inspected the tires after each occurrence and said the remaining were in good condition and inflated properly. The tires were model g 670 rv. Goodyear finally made a concession and replaced the tires at a drastically reduced rate, but were more worried about lawsuits than safety.
