The short answer

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

If the rivet shears under occupant load, the occupant may fall, increasing the risk of personal injury.

Jayco, Inc.

(Jayco) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Seismic Pinnacle and Eagle Premier recreational trailers manufactured April 3, 2013, to February 27, 2015.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
