2005–2006 Gulf Stream Vista Cruiser recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain class b motor homes built on the sprinter chassis, the steel bracket securing the holding tank is installed in a location in which it presses against the oem brake lines.
💥 The risk
This condition creates points of possible wear due to vibration during vehicle operation which, over time, could cause the brake lines to fatigue and leak brake fluid. This could cause failure of the brakes to operate properly which could result in a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will repair these vehicles. The recall began on october 14, 2005. Owners may contact gulf stream at 1-574-773-7761.
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.)
