What NHTSA recorded

On certain recreational vehicles, the rear spring hanger brackets may not have been installed in accordance with haulmark's specifications during the modification process. This condition could cause the spring hanger fasteners to lose torque and fail.

Possible consequence

Should the spring hanger fasteners fail, the axle may disconnect from the frame, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and, potentially, a crash.

Remedy

An authorized freightliner dealer will inspect and replace the spring hanger fasteners. The recall is expected to begin during october 2005. Owners may contact haulmark at 866-760-8195 to locate the closest freightliner dealer to make arrangements to have their vehicle inspected.
