💥 Crash riskNHTSA 09V437📅 Nov 6, 2009

2007–2009 Roadtrek Rsad & 2007–2009 Roadtrek Rsaf + 2 more recall: electrical system

⚠️ What's wrong

Roadtrek is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 class b roadtrek Rsad, Ssad, Rsaf and Ssaf motorhomes built on chrysler sprinter van chassis. The brake line comes in close proximity to the battery and battery tray and CAN rub against them. This situation CAN damage the coating on the brake line and expose the bare steel. Also, battery acid CAN drip on the brake line.

💥 The risk

Either of these defects could result in a brake fluid leak which could cause partial brake failure. This could result in a crash.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will inspect the brake line for adequate clearance between the line and the battery and battery tray. When required they will move the brake line if not compromised. If compromised they will replace the line and install it with adequate clearance. The remedy will be performed free of charge. The recall began on november 30, 2009. Owners may contact roadtrek at 1-888-762-3872.

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.)
