2007–2008 Gulf Stream Crescendo & 2007–2008 Gulf Stream Tourmaster + 1 more recall: steering

⚠️ What's wrong

Gulf stream is recalling 68 my 2007-2008 Crescendo, tour master and Yellowstone motor homes built on freightliner chassis. The aac front axle steering arm bolts with a LATCH lever pivot bolt assembly may have been over-tightened which may result in fatigue or fracture of the steering arm bolts.

💥 The risk

Should these bolts fracture, the resulting loss of steering control could cause a crash.

🔧 The fix

Gulf stream is working with daimler trucks (freightliner) to repair these vehicles free of charge (please see 07V306). Owners may contact freightliner at 1-800-547-0712 or 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.)
