2007 Fleetwood Orbit & 2007 Fleetwood Pegasus recall: tires
⚠️ What's wrong
Certain travel trailers may have been equipped with improperly constructed spare tire support brackets that cause the spare tire to hang too low to the ground.
💥 The risk
If the spare tire contacts the ground it CAN break away from its support, creating a road hazard which may result in vehicle damage and/or personal injury.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and relocate the spare tire and carrier to allow sufficient ground clearance free of charge. The recall began on october 31, 2006. Owners may contact fleetwood at 800-445-3307.
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.)
