2002–2003 Coachmen Aurora & 2002–2003 Coachmen Rendezvous + 2 more recall: brakes

⚠️ What's wrong

On motor home chassis built by workhorse and equipped with bosch brakes, the pads CAN drag on the rotor surface due to the pin slide.

💥 The risk

A hang up or lock up may cause the calipers to over heat and not allow the driver to stop safely. This could cause overheating of the brake calipers which could result in a vehicle fire.

🔧 The fix

Workhorse is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Dealers will repair the brake caliper. Owners should contact workhorse at 1-877-294-6773 or coachmen at 219-825-5821.

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.)
