NHTSA recall 95V154000
Suspension
Holiday Rambler Aluma Lite and 3 more
The defect
The storage compartment at the rear of the unit does not have a specified storage weight limitation and can therefore be loaded beyond the manufacturer's intentions. Also some units were designed with a fresh water tank located at the rear of the unit. As a result, these trailers exhibit reduced stability while being towed.
The risk
Overloading of the rear storage compartment especially with a full, rear-mounted fresh water tank, can cause reduced trailer stability and increase the potential for an accident.
The remedy
Dealers will place a label on the storage compartment to indicate the maximum storage weight capacity, will relocate the fresh water tank on the affected models, and install a "hensley arrow" hitch which will provide a better towing stability. The "hensley arrow" hitch will not be a required part for the remedy on the 1995 aluma-lite 31cfs travel trailer due to the unit's shorter length.
