2012 Jayco Seneca recall: trailer hitch
⚠️ What's wrong
Jayco is recalling certain model year 2011 Seneca class c motorhomes, series 36FK and 37FS, manufactured from may 18, 2011, through july 13, 2011. These vehicles may have insufficiently torqued bolts attaching the rear hitch to the frame.
💥 The risk
Loose hitch bolts could result in the hitch separating from the frame, creating a road hazard increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and tighten up the hitch bolts free of charge. The safety recall began on september 6, 2011. Owners may contact jayco at 1-800-283-8267.
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.)
