The defect
CROSSROADS RV IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2012 RUSHMORE AND ELEVATION RECREATIONAL VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FROM JUNE 1, 2011, THROUGH JANUARY 12, 2012, WITH PANTHER STYLE 16 8-LUG ALUMINUM WHEELS.

THIS CAN RESULT IN A WHEEL BECOMING LOOSE AND POTENTIALLY COMING OFF OF THE TRAILER.
The risk
A WHEEL SEPARATION CAN LEAD TO LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE TRAILER INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH, SERIOUS INJURIES, OR DAMAGE TO OTHERS.
The remedy
CROSSROADS RV WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND REPLACE THE CENTER CAPS FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON MARCH 12, 2012. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CROSSROADS RV AT 1-888-226-7496.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 12V023000.
