2007 Western Alpine recalls
Recall 08V-005: Equipment
Problem: On certain motor homes equipped with atwood sealed burner ranges, the range and slide-in burner tubes leading from the gas manifold to the burner heads had a depression or "kink" in the exterior bend restricting proper airflow and gas mixture.
Risk: This condition could result in carbon monoxide poisoning.
Fix: Western rv is working with atwood to have the tubes replaced on these ranges (Please see 07e030). The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact atwood at 1-800-348-7418 or western rv at 1-509-457-4133.
Recall 07V-313: Engine and Engine Cooling
Problem: On certain motor homes built with cummins isl cm850 diesel engines, the connecting rod contains a machining defect in the wrist pin bushing of the rod that could cause a seizure of the piston pin.
Risk: If allowed to progress, this can lead to engine failure with the possibility of the rod rupturing the lock cavity, oil and debris on the roadway and vehicle crash.
Fix: Western rv is working with cummins to recalibrate the engine control module and enhance the engine protection system enabling it to provide early detection of the failure mode and avoid more serious engine damage and resultant safety hazard. Cummins will also install a new valve cover with a crankcase pressure sensor free of charge (Please see 07e033).
