2007 R-Vision Trail-Lite recalls

Recall 08V-578: Steering

Reported Nov 3, 2008 · 202 vehicles affected · MONACO COACH CORPORATION

Problem: Monaco is recalling 202 my 2006 monarch se, my 2009 riptide, my 2006 holiday rambler admiral se, my 2007-2009 arista, my 2007-2009 safari passage, my 2006 simba and trek gas, and my 2006-2007 r-vision trail-lite and trail-aire motor homes built on workhorse 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: Monaco 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 monaco at 1-800-685-6545.

Recall 07V-547: Electrical System

Reported Nov 19, 2007 · 646 vehicles affected · R-VISION

Problem: On certain travel trailers, the converter neutral wire is connected to the bonding (Ground) bar instead of the neutral bar.

Risk: This could lead to a situation with a shock hazard which could cause a personal injury.

Fix: Dealers will remove the neutral wire from the bonding (Ground) bar and install it on the neutral bar free of charge. The recall began on december 17, 2007. Owners may contact r-vision at 574-268-2111

Recall 06V-364: Engine and Engine Cooling

Reported Sep 21, 2006 · 25 vehicles affected · R-VISION

Problem: On certain motor homes built on workhorse chassis and equipped with GM 8.1l v8 engines, improper hardening during the heat treatment process can cause the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clip to fracture, resulting in inadequate retention of the damper. If the damper becomes loose, fuel could be pumped by the fuel pump into the under hood area.

Risk: In the presence of an ignition source, a fire could result.

Fix: Workhorse is handling the owner notification and remedy for this campaign (Please see 06v225). Dealers will replace the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clips on these engines free of charge. Owners may contact workhorse at 877-294-6773 or r-vision at 574-268-2111.
