THIS COMPLAINT INVOLVES A 2004 JAYCO TRAVEL TRAILER. THE FRESHWATER TANK IS HELD IN PLACE UNDER THE TRAILER BY TWO METAL STRAPS AT EITHER END OF THE TANK. THESE STRAPS ARE THEN SCREWED INTO THE FLOORBOARDS BY SMALL SCREWS. IN JULY OF 2008 THIS SYSTEM FAILED AND THE TANK FELL TO THE GROUND. IT WAS REPAIRED BY A JAYCO DEALER. ON 4/ 20/09 THE SYSTEM AGAIN FAILED. LUCKILY, NEITHER TIME WERE WE ON THE HIGHWAY OR THE RESULTS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN FATALITIES. I WOULD LIKE JAYCO TO REPAIR ALL TRAVEL TRAILERS WITH THIS SYSTEM SO WE CAN ALL REMAIN SAFE. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 JAYCO 27FT BH, WITH LIMITED USE, AS I WAS CHANGING A FLAT, I NOTICED THAT ON BOTH FRAMES HAVE A UPSIDE DOWN T CRACK ON ALMOST EVERY SUPPORT UNDER THE TRAILER, I AM NOW AFRAID TO TOW THIS TRAILER, I HAVE SEEN VERY MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT JACYCO FRAME CRACKS OF THIS NATURE ON VARIOUS WEB PAGES, I FEL THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT JAYCO IS AFRAID TO ADMIT TOO, I CALLED MY DEALER, AND THEY SAID THAT I MUST BRING IT TO THEM FOR INSPECTION, BUT I WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE. AND THAT THEY FELT AS IF JAYCO WOULD NOT PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR
Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling various 2002-2016 recreational vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V746-9524.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf
