2000–2001 Jayco Eagle & 2000–2001 Jayco Heritage recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: folding campers. A flexible brake hose is not clamped in a position away from the tire, which CAN lead to chaffing of the hose causing a leak of hydraulic fluid.
💥 The risk
This could result in a loss of trailer brakes, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will add a clamp to the brake hose.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
