Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
THE STEERING GEARBOX MAY BECOME LOOSE AFFECTING STEERING CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
ON CERTAIN NEW “FACE-LIFT” MOTOR COACHES AND MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION, A MODIFICATION WAS MADE TO THE STEERING GEARBOX MOUNTING SUPPORT.
THE SUPPORT MAY DEVELOP STRESS CRACKS UNDER HEAVY LOAD CONDITIONS.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
