1995 Holiday Rambler Aluma Lite recalls

What is wrong

On certain motor homes, fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with a two-door refrigerator manufactured by the dometic corporation, the refrigerator 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.

Risk

Release of coolant under certain conditions could ignite and result in a fire.

Remedy

Monaco will be working with dometic in order to repair these refrigerators (please see 06e076). Dometic will repair these refrigerators by installing a secondary burn housing, a thermal fuse, and a melt fuse free of charge. Dometic has retained stericycle inc. To manage this campaign. Stericycle will assist the owner in locating dealerships or service centers and will provide assistance with scheduling of appointments. Owners may contact dometic/stericycle at 1‑888‑446‑5157 or monaco at 1‑877‑466‑6226.

Recall number 07V423000 · Recall details

What is wrong

The federal certification label overstates the gross axle weight rating (gawr) as 5,000 lbs. The correct gawr is 4,670 lbs. This does not conform to fmvss no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars."

Risk

Consequence of non-compliance: the load rating for the tires and atires pressures designated on the federal certification label are not appropriate for the incorrectly stated gawr. Incorrect tire and tire inflations can result in tire failure and possible vehicle accident.

Remedy

Owners will be sent replacement certification labels and instructions for replacing them. If they prefer, owners can have their dealers replace these labels for them.

Recall number 95V226000 · Recall details

What is wrong

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.

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.

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.
