Filed Dec 21, 2000850 vehiclesSunnybrook Rv Inc.

Defect. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: FIFTH WHEEL AND TRAVEL TRAILERS EQUIPPED WITH DEXTER AXLES THAT WERE MANUFACTURED WITH A BEARING OPTION KNOWN AS NEV-R-LUBE. THE OPTIONAL HUB UTILIZES A SEALED CARTRIDGE BEARING WHICH IS HELD IN PLACE WITH A RETAINING RING THAT PREVENTS THE HUB FROM SHIFTING ON THE BEARING. SOME OF THESE AXLE ASSEMBLIES WERE PRODUCED WITHOUT THE RETAINING RING.

Risk. THE ABSENCE OF THE RETAINING RING CAN ALLOW THE HUB TO SHIFT INWARD AND MAY RESULT IN BRAKE INTERFERENCE OR TIRE CONTACT TO THE VEHICLE STRUCTURE. BRAKING PROBLEMS CAN RESULT IN A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. TIRE CONTACT TO THE VEHICLE STRUCTURE CAN RESULT IN OVERHEATING AND POTENTIALLY LEAD TO A FIRE OR CAUSE THE TIRE TO BLOWOUT.

Remedy. DEXTER AXLE WILL INSPECT AND REPAIR THE AFFECTED AXLES FREE OF CHARGE.

I HAVE HAD 4 GOODYEAR MARATHON S TRAILER TIRES FAIL DUE TO TREAD SEPARATION IN THE LAST 3 YEARS. TREAD SEPARATION HAS OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING AT 60-65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. TWO OF THE TIRES SEPARATED WITHIN A 2 MONTH TIME PERIOD. I MAINTAIN THE AIR PRESSURE AT 65 PSI COLD AS IMPRINTED ON THE TIRE. MY TRAILER IS A 30 FT. SUNNYBROOK AND IS WITH IN THE GVRW AS WELL AS EACH TIRE WEIGHT RATING. I HAVE CONTACTED GOODYEAR AND CURRENTLY AM AWAITING A CLAIM. GOODYEAR HAS STATED THAT THERE IS NO DEFECT. SEVERAL OTHER MEMBERS OF OUR CAMPING CLUB HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE MARATHON S TIRES. *NM

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.
