2006 HOME AND PARK ROADTREK 210 recalls

ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET CHASSIS AND EQUIPPED WITH A DECORATIVE DASH TRIM KIT, THE ADHESIVE BACKED SYNTHETIC TRIM IS ATTACHED TO THE DASH, ENGINE COVER, DOOR PANEL AND THE CHEVROLET "BOW TIE" DECAL IS ATTACHED TO THE STEERING WHEEL (DIRECTLY OVER THE EXISTING BOW TIE IMPRESSION). THIS DECAL COULD AFFECT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG SAFETY RESTRAINT BUILT INTO THE STEERING WHEEL.

IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE CRASH IN WHICH THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED, THE RESULTING FUNCTIONALITY OF THE AIR BAG IS UNCERTAIN, WHICH CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS.

OWNERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO REMOVE THE STEERING WHEEL DECAL. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MAY 30, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HOME AND PARK AT 1-800-663-0066.

ON CERTAIN CLASS B MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET CHASSIS AND EQUIPPED WITH PROPANE BBQ CONNECTION. A RUBBER HOSE IS CONNECTED TO THE PROPANE REGULATOR AT ONE END AND HAS A BRASS SHUTOFF VALVE CONNECTOR ON THE OTHER "FREE END." THE CLAMP USED FOR HOLDING THE BRASS BBQ SHUTOFF VALVE IS NOT INSERTED PROPERLY INTO ITS HOLDING CLAMP.

SINCE THE RESTRAINING CLAMP IS MISSING, THE HOSE CAN BOUNCE UP AND DOWN. AS THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN, THE CONNECTOR CAN FALL TO THE GROUND DRAGGING ONTO THE PAVEMENT AND COULD WEAR A HOLE THROUGH THE HOSE. PROPANE CAN LEAK OUT CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR A FIRE.

DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE BBQ HOSE CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY, CHECK FOR ANY WEAR, AND REPLACE UNITS. THE UNITS WILL BE RESTRAINED AND CLAMPS WILL BE ADDED TO LIMIT THE LENGTH OF THE FREE END OF THE HOSE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 28, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HOME AND PARK AT 888-762-3873.

ON CERTAIN CLASS B MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET CHASSIS, A BRASS CONNECTOR COUPLING FITTING USED TO CONNECT THE COPPER PIPING FROM THE MOTOR HOME PROPANE STORAGE CONTAINER TO THE BRASS FITTING ASSEMBLY BEHIND THE REFRIGERATOR.

DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE BRASS CONNECTOR FITTING AND REPLACE IT IF NECESSARY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 20, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HOME AND PARK AT 1-888-762-3873.

ON CERTAIN CLASS B MOTOR HOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET CHASSIS, WHEN THE REAR AXLE LIFT KIT WAS INSTALLED, THE U-BOLT NUTS WERE NOT TIGHTENED PROPERLY.
