Recall 06V200000 — STEERING:COLUMN
| 2 vehicles affected
Defect: ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH TRW MANUAL STEERING COLUMNS, THE STEERING COLUMN HAS AN INCORRECT BUSHING THAT DOES NOT PROPERLY LIMIT THE TRAVEL OF THE STEERING COLUMN.
Consequence: THE REDUCED ENGAGEMENT OF THE COLUMN TUBING MAY LIMIT THE DRIVER'S CAPABILITY TO CONTROL THE STEERING INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: TRW SERVICE CENTERS, FREE OF CHARGE, WILL REPLACE THE BUSHING TO ENSURE PROPER ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN THE STEERING COLUMN TUBES. OWNERS MAY CONTACT SPARTAN AT 1-800-543-4277, OPTION #1.

JULY 2007 WE PURCHASED A NEW REXHALL ROSEAIR RV FROM THEIR DEALER. THIS RV WAS COMING OFF THE MANUFACTURE LINE. WE WERE NOT ADVISED THAT REXHALL WAS USING SEVEN YEAR CHASSIS THAT HAD BEEN OUT IN THE CALIF. DESERT UNPROTECTED. AFTER RECEIPT OF THE RV WE FOUND OUT THAT THE ENTIRE WIRING HARNESS WAS CRACKED, BRITTLE AND COPPER ON COPPER. WE CAME VERY CLOSE TO HAVING A FIRE IN THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT BILL REX, CEO OF REXHALL PUT APPROXIMATELY 5-10 RV'S SIMILAR TO THIS OUT ON THE ROAD AS NEW. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE STARTER, ALTERNATOR, THE CHASSIS A/C, THE AIR BAG SENSOR, TIRES, AND THE POWER STEERING HOSE. WHEN THE AIR BAG SENSOR BLEW I BEGAN HAVING STEERING PROBLEMS ON HWY 101, IN WHICH CAME CLOSE TO LOSING TOTAL CONTROL. THIS RV IS AND WAS A MAJOR HIGHWAY SAFETY PROBLEM. I SPENT $178,000 FOR THIS RV AND WHEN I FILED A CALIF. LEMON LAWSUIT AGAINST REXHALL THEY CONVENIENTLY FILED A CHAPTER 11 BK. BILL REX WILL NOT TAKE THIS RV BACK AND RETURN MY MONEY, THE ONLY THING HE DID WAS REPLACE THE WIRING HARNESS.
