Airstream recalls 2020-2021 models with VB suspension systems where bolts may absorb load instead of brackets, risking handling issues and crashes. Owners get free bolt replacements.
If the bolts carry the load rather than the bracket, it can cause them to break, affecting the vehicle handling and increasing the risk of a crash.
Airstream is recalling certain 2020-2021 motorhomes with VB suspension systems. If the suspension bolts carry the load instead of the bracket, it could cause handling problems and increase crash risk.
The lock portion of the countersink bolts may be too long, causing the panhard rod bracket to not fully contact the springs. This makes the bolts absorb the load instead of the bracket, leading to handling issues and potential crashes.
Owners of 2020-2021 Airstream Atlas and Interstate motorhomes with VB suspension systems are affected. Drivers using these vehicles without the fix face higher crash risk.
