Defect description

Roadtrek is recalling certain model year 2011 and 2012 Roadtrek 21PC Popular and 21VC Versatile model class "B" motorhomes built from October 1, 2010, through November 12, 2011. On some motorhomes, the rivets may fail that secure the awning brackets to the motorhome side wall, allowing the bracket and Thule awning to come off the motor home while operating the awning.

Safety consequence

If the awning separates from the motor home, the user or people nearby may be injured.

Roadtrek will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional stainless steel rivet on each of the awning brackets, free of charge. The safety recall began on August 21, 2012. Owners may contact Roadtrek Service Department at 1-888-ROADTREK (762-3873) or 1-519-745-1169.

IN SEPT. 2015 AT AN ODOMETER READING OF 25,000 MILES THE LEFT REAR FACTORY SUPPLIED ALUMINUM WHEEL(CHINESE MANUFACTURED) CRACKED AT THE BASE OF A SPOKE CAUSING A PRECIPITOUS LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE. IN SEPT. 2016 AT 32,000 MILES A SECOND FACTORY SUPPLIED ALUMINUM WHEEL CRACKED AT THE BASE OF A SPOKE, ONCE AGAIN CAUSING A PRECIPITOUS LOSS OF TIRE AIR PRESSURE.
