Defect. R-VISION IS RECALLING 6 MY 2008 TRAIL-LITE B-PLUS AND TOWN & COUNTRY SPORT MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON FORD CHASSIS. THE DRIVE SHAFT MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH A SLIP YOKE THAT HAS CRACKS, POSSIBLY REDUCING ITS FATIGUE LIFE.

Risk. CRACKS IN THE SLIP YOKE WOULD PROGRESS OVER TIME AND THE SLIP YOKE COULD FRACTURE WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN ALLOWING THE DRIVE SHAFT TO SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. R-VISION IS WORKING WITH FORD TO HAVE THE DRIVE SHAFT AND SLIP YOKE INSPECTED AND REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE (PLEASE SEE 08V165). THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673 OR R-VISION AT 1-574-268-2111.

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.
