Defect Summary | Damon is recalling certain model year 2007-2011 challenger, model year 2005-2007 intruder motor homes. these motor homes do not have the proper clearance between the rear suspension leaf spring and the vehicle liquid propane fuel tank. as the suspension travels it is possible for the leaf spring shackle bolt to come in contact with the tank. this potentially could puncture the tank and result in a fire or explosion. | |||||||||||||||
Consequence Summary | In the event of a fire or explosion, there is a potential for property damage, personal injury or death. | |||||||||||||||
