2009 Coachmen Prism recall: engine
⚠️ What's wrong
Coachmen is recalling 2 my 2009 Prism class c motor homes built on chrysler my 2007 dodge or freightliner sprinter chassis equipped with 3.0L diesel engines. The crankshaft position sensor may have been manufactured incorrectly. The engine could fail due to separation of bond wires from the lead frame in the sensor. This results in an interruption in the electrical connection in the chip housing of the sensor.
💥 The risk
This could cause the vehicle's engine to stall or not start under certain conditions increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Coachmen is working with chrysler to replace the crankshaft sensors free of charge (please see 07V594). The two vehicles involved are still in coachmen's possession and will be remedied prior to being shipped to dealers.
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.)
