The problem

Thor motor coach is recalling certain model year 2007-2010 damon challenger, model year 2008-2009 challenger platinum, model year 2007-2011 daybreak, model year 2010 daybreak classic, model year 2009-2010 daybreak sport, model year 2007-2009, outlaw and model year 2011 four winds hurricane, recreational vehicles manufactured from march 2007, through august 2008. The fuel-fill cap assemblies used to seal the unused side of the dual-fill gasoline fuel tank were produced with a hose material that did not meet design specifications. During normal usage the hose material may deteriorate which may result in fuel leaks.

The risk

A fuel leak increases the risk of a fire which may result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

The fix

Navistar/workhorse is handling the remedy and owner notification for this campaign please see navistar/workhorse's defect report 10v-348. Navistar/workhorse will replace the original fuel-fill cap assemblies with ones assembled with hose material that meets design specifications. This service will be performed free of charge.
