Structure

What is wrong: Vehicle description: fifth wheel and travel trailers. Rivets used to secure the step risers on these vehicles are the wrong size. The rivets are too short in length and under stress can allow the step treads to become unattached from the mounting bracket.
Risk: If the step riser falls from the mounting bracket while a person is stepping on it, personal injury could occur.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the step riser assembly.
