DEFECT #1 - TRAILER HITCHES:FIFTH WHEEL ASSEMBLY


Posted on: 2005-05-25
Description
On certain fifth wheel travel trailers, there is inadequate support in the front c-channel cross members and gooseneck which could cause the fiberglass cap to be damaged and/or the front cross member to buckle or bow.

Consequence
If the cross member buckled or bowed on the trailer while being towed, a crash could occur.

Corrective Action
Skyline will return the units to the factory at its expense, replace the 7-gauge c-channel cross member with a tube steel cross member and return the units to the owners.  The recall began on may 31, 2005.  Owners may contact skyline at 1-800-929-1080.
