Defect. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PARK TRAILERS EQUIPPED WITH SUBURBAN MANUFACTURING COMPANY P-40 PARK TRAILER FURNACES. THE COMBUSTION AIR BLOWER WHEEL WAS NOT TO DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS. OPERATION OF THE FURNACE WITH THE INCORRECT BLOWER WHEEL COULD PROVIDE AN INADEQUATE SUPPLY OF COMBUSTION AIR TO SUPPORT PROPER COMBUSTION. THE RESULT IS THAT THE FURNACE EXHAUST COULD CONTAIN EXCESSIVE LEVELS OF CARBON MONOXIDE.

Risk. IF CARBON MONOXIDE IS NOT DETECTED, IT COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

Remedy. SUBURBAN WILL REPLACE THE COMBUSTION AIR BLOWER WHEEL. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT SUBURBAN 1-423-775-2131 OR SKYLINE AT 1-219-294-6521.

WHILE DRIVING WEST ON INTERSTATE 30 APPROXIMATELY 7 MILES FROM MR. VERNON, TX THE LEFT FRONT TIRE ON MY TRAVEL TRAILER LOST ITS TREAD. THE TREAD WRAPPED AROUND THE BRAKE AND BLEW INTO THE WHEEL WELL DAMAGING THE VANITY, BREAKING THE WATER LINES AND DAMAGING THE INTERIOR OF THE TRAILER. DAMAGE TO THE TRAILER WAS ESTIMATED AT $1400.00. THIS WAS ONE TIME OCCURRENCE. I REPLACED THE TIRE WITH THE SPARE, REMOVED THE TREAD AND STOPPED THE WATER FLOW. I EVENTUALLY TURNED THE TIRE OVER TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND FILED A CLAIM WITH THE TIRE MANUFACTURER, AMERICAN GENERAL NOW CONTINENTAL TIRE. THE TIRE DID NOT GO FLAT HOWEVER AFTER PARKING THE TRAILER THE TIRE DID LOOSE ITS PRESSURE. I HAD TO REMOVE THE BRAKE DRUM AND REPAIR THE ELECTRIC BRAKE WIRES SO I COULD CONTINUE ON TO MY DESTINATION. I HAVE FILED A CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY WHO IS SUBROGATING AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

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.
