The problem
Provan is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 tiger motorhomes built on ford f-350 and chevrolet 3500 class "c" chassis. The weld joints attaching the spare tire carrier to the vehicle may crack or tear.
The risk
If the cracks or tears go unnoticed, the spare tire carrier could completely separate from the vehicle creating a road hazard, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
The fix
Provan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the spare tire carrier free of charge. The safety recall began during september 2011. Owners may contact tiger at 1-800-531-9383.

Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to <a href=http://www.safercar.gov>http://www.safercar.gov</a> .
