Defect. CERTAIN TRAVEL AND FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF PART 567, "CERTIFICATION," AND FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 110, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS." THE INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THE CERTIFICATION AND TIRE INFORMATION LABELS DENOTING THE TIRE PRESSURE IS INCORRECT.

Risk. A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING SPECIFICATIONS OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A TIRE FAILURE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE INCORRECT FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABEL AND INSTALL A NEW CORRECTED FEDERAL CERTIFICATION LABEL FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 3, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT KOMFORT AT 937-596-6849.

Wheels › Rim07V271000

Filed Jun 13, 200729 vehiclesKomfort Corporation

Defect. CERTAIN TRAVEL AND FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS WERE BUILT WITH INCORRECTLY SIZED WHEELS. THE INCORRECT WIDER RIM DOES NOT ALLOW PROPER CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE SHOCK ABSORBER, SHOCK BRACKETS, AND THE TIRE.

Risk. THIS REDUCED CLEARANCE MAY CAUSE THE TIRE TO RUB ON THE CHASSIS RESULTING IN TIRE FAILURE. THIS FAILURE MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. KOMFORT WILL REPLACE THE WHEELS AND TIRES OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 3, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT KOMFORT AT 1-503 722-5199.

Structure

Filed May 7, 2008CA

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 KOMFORT TRAVEL TRAILER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BACK SLIDER OF THE TRAILER DID NOT SEAL CORRECTLY. HE NOTICED THAT WHEN IT RAINED OR WHEN HE WASHED THE TRAILER, THE INTERIOR WOULD BECOME SOAKED. SOMEONE SHOWED HIM THAT HE COULD SEAL IT WITH BARS, BUT THE CONTACT DID NOT WANT TO DO THAT SINCE HE FIGURED IT WAS A FAILURE WITH THE TRAILER. HE CONSULTED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INFORMED THAT HE WOULD RECEIVE A CALLBACK. HE NEVER RECEIVED A CALLBACK. THE DEALER ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR THE FAILURE SIX TIMES, BUT IT STILL PERSISTS. THE MILEAGE WAS NOT APPLICABLE.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
