Country Coach · Model Report
Showing safety data for the 2004 model year only.
COUNTRY COACH IS RECALLING 1,228 MY 2004-2008 MAGNA, AFFINITY AND INTRIGUE MOTOR HOMES. THESE MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." THE SIDE MARKER LIGHTS IN THE COMBINATION HEADLIGHT AND TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLIES DO NOT MEET THE MINIMUM PHOTOMETRIC VALUES SPECIFIED IN FMVSS NO. 108.
CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH A TWO-DOOR REFRIGERATOR, MANUFACTURED BY THE DOMETIC CORPORATION, MAY HAVE A DEFECT IN THE BOILER TUBE. PRESSURIZED COOLANT SOLUTION COULD BE RELEASED INTO AN AREA WHERE AN IGNITION SOURCE (GAS FLAME) IS PRESENT.
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES, THE HYDRAULIC SLIDE ROOM HOSES COULD BLISTER AND LEAK DUE TO ENGINE HEAT.
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH AN INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION (IFS) GEN II BUILT BY HOLLAND USA, THE GEAR PLATE SUPPORT GUSSETS WERE REMOVED. THIS CAN ALLOW THE PLATE TO FLEX DURING A STATIC STEER CONDITION.
HOLLAND INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSIONS P/N 90547917 IFS-114 WITH THE 90547978 SUBFRAME FOR USE ON CERTAIN COUNTRY COACH VEHICLES AND SHIPPED BETWEEN MARCH 5, 2003, AND JUNE 28, 2004. EARLY IFS-114 UNITS WITH P/N 90546687 USED A DIFFERENT SUBFRAME, P/N 90546691 THAT IS NOT AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL. THE NEW SUBFRAME DID NOT HAVE GUSSETS THAT HELP SUPPORT THE STEERING GEAR MOUNTING PLATE. THE LACK OF GUSSETS ALLOWS EXCESSIVE FLEXING OF THE STEERING GEAR MOUNTING PLATE WHICH MAY LEAD TO FATIGUE CRACKS.
RE: VEHICLE SAFETY DEFECT OWNER NOTIFICATION, 05V-373. AFFECTS VARIOUS COUNTRY COACH MOTOR HOMES. THE SUBJECT SAFETY DEFECT LISTS SEVERAL MODELS OF COUNTRY COACHES. MINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE LIST, HOWEVER THE SAME DEFECT HAS APPEARED IN MY MOTOR HOME, I.E. LARGE BLISTERS APPEARING ON THE HYDRAULIC HOSES FOR THE HWH SLIDE ROOM. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE LOSS OF HYDRAULIC FLUID, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE SLIDE ROOM TO UNEXPECTEDLY EXTEND WHILE IN-TRANSIT. THIS CAN RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH. (THIS DESCRIPTION IS TAKEN DIRECTLY FROM THE RECALL NOTICE) THE LIST OF AFFECTED MODELS FOR THIS RECALL SHOULD BE REVISED, AS IT IS APPARENT THAT MY COACH HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. MY COACH IS A 2004 INTRIGUE, [XXX]. I BELIEVE IT WAS BUILT IN JANUARY, 2004. THIS PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED WHILE THE COACH WAS UNDERGOING ROUTING SERVICE. COUNTRY COACH HAS NOT RESPONDED TO MY REQUEST FOR HELP IN FIXING THE PROBLEM.*JB UPDATED 07/17/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
