What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: motor homes built on spartan chassis. Welds have cracked on the frame plate where the hitch tube was welded on each side of the frame.

Possible consequence

In the event the welds would fail, the hitch and the tow vehicle could be separated from the motor home, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect these welds and, if necessary, reweld the hitch to the frame plate.
