FLAMES COME UP THE CARBURETOR INSIDE THE COCAH AND OUT THE TAIL PIPE RIGHT AT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR. MICHELIN TIRES, RADIAL, 8R195XZALRF, EXPERIENCED BLOWOUT IN THE MIDDLE ON THE SIDE. TAG AXLE TWISTS AND RUBS BRAKES CAUSING LOCK UP, BUSHINGS KEEP FALLING OUT. STEERING COLUMN FAULTY. CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT DISENGAGE. *SLC
THE STEERING COLUMN SHAFT NUT RETAINING CLIP MAY BE MISSING. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THE LACK OF A RETAINING CLIP WILL ALLOW THE NUT TO WORK LOOSE AND THE STEERING WHEEL TO SEPARATE FROM THE STEERING COLUMN.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: STEERING WHEEL SEPARATION FROM THE STEERING COLUMN CANRESULT IN COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
Remedy: INSPECT STEERING ASSEMBLY FOR A STEERING WHEEL NUT RETAINING CLIP. IF CLIP IS MISSING, INSTALL A STEERING WHEEL NUT RETAINING CLIP, OR HAVE A DEALER INSPECT AND INSTALL A CLIP. FLEETWOOD ADVISES OWNERS NOT TO OPERATE THE MOTORHOMES UNTIL A STEERING WHEEL NUT INSPECTION AND CLIP INSTALLATION IS COMPLETED.
THE TELEVISION MOUNTED IN THE FRONT OVERHEAD CABINET MAY BE INSECURELY MOUNTED, AND COULD VIBRATE LOOSE AND FALL.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: FALLING TV COULD STRIKE THE DRIVER OR FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, OR COULD DISTRACT THE DRIVER'S ATTENTION, CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR AN ACCIDENT.
Remedy: ADD TWO RETAINING BRACKETS TO PREVENT THE TV FROM MOVING OUT OF ITS CABINET.
