NHTSA campaign 15V209000 · Part 573 safety recall report

Highland Ridge RV: Equipment › Recreational Vehicle/Trailer

Highland Ridge RV reported this defect to federal regulators on Apr 7, 2015 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 238. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.

The defect

Highland Ridge RV (Highland) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Roamer, Mesa Ridge, Light, 3X, and Journeyer travel and fifth wheel trailers manufactured March 6, 2015, to March 26, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the screws that attach the expanding room to the sliding mechanism cable may fail allowing the room to extend unintentionally while the vehicle is in motion.

The risk

If the room extends while vehicle is in motion, there is an increased risk of a crash.

The remedy

Highland will notify owners, and dealers will replace the slide room mechanism attaching screws, free of charge. The recall began on May 5, 2015. Owners may contact Highland customer service at 1-260-768-7771.

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 15V209000.
