2007 Prevost Xlii-45E recalls
Recall 08V-610: Steering
Problem: Prevost is recalling 395 my 2007-2009 mth xl2-45, mth xl2-45e, and x3-45 motor homes and motor coaches. On some vehicles, the power steering hose protective skin has been damaged at assembly, leaving the metal braiding exposed to the environment.
Risk: Over time, the metallic braiding may rust up to a point where the hose will give up under pressure. This could result in a loss of control increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Dealers will repair the power steering hose assembly. The recall is expected to begin during november 2008. Owners may contact prevost at 1-418-831-5432.
Recall 07V-371: Parking Brake
Problem: On certain motor coaches equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the internal rubber check valve may leak causing a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.
Risk: This could cause delay or failure in applying the parking brakes which could result in a vehicle roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Prevost is working with bendix to repair these vehicles (Please see 07e037). Bendix will install a check valve repair kit for the affected sr-7 spring brake modulating valve free of charge. The recall began on september 14, 2007. Owners may contact bendix at 1-440-329-9000 or prevost at 1-418-831-2046.
Recall 06V-243: Parking Brake
Problem: On certain motor coaches equipped with bendix sr-7 brake valves, the check valve inside the valve cavity may not properly set, causing internal air leakage. If the check valve does not properly seat, the resulting leakage can cause a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.
Risk: The delayed parking brake application can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway increasing the risk of a crash.
