2005 Skyline Nomad recalls
Recall 08V-394: Equipment
Problem: Skyline is recalling 22,372 my 2004-2007 alliance, aljo, celebrity, century, freestyle, layton, nomad, rampage, seaview, trailrider, and weekender fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the dometic corporation. The refrigerator may have a defect in the boiler tube. Pressurized coolant solution could be released into an area where an ignition source (Gas flame) is present.
Risk: If this solution is exposed to an ignition source under certain specific circumstances, it can result in a vehicle fire.
Fix: Skyline is working with dometic to repair these refrigerators (Please see 08e032). Dometic will repair these refrigerators by installing a secondary burn housing, a thermal fuse, and a melt fuse free of charge. Dometic has retained stericycle inc. To manage this campaign. Stericycle will assist the owner in locating dealerships or service centers and will provide assistance with scheduling of appointments. Owners may contact dometic/stericycle at 1-888-446-5157 or skyline at 1-574-294-6521.
Recall 05V-238: Trailer Hitches
Problem: On certain fifth wheel travel trailers, there is inadequate support in the front c-channel cross members and gooseneck which could cause the fiberglass cap to be damaged and/or the front cross member to buckle or bow.
Risk: If the cross member buckled or bowed on the trailer while being towed, a crash could occur.
Fix: Skyline will return the units to the factory at its expense, replace the 7-gauge c-channel cross member with a tube steel cross member and return the units to the owners. The recall began on may 31, 2005. Owners may contact skyline at 1-800-929-1080.
