| Defect Summary | Gulf stream is recalling 5 my 2008-2008 tourmaster recreational vehicles equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake control valves. the parker scv brass 90 degree single check valves (scv) which attach to the supply port of a bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valve can break apart. pieces of the parker scv can become lodged inside the sr-7 spring brake modulating valve, potentially causing either leakage out of the sr-7 valve or preventing air from properly exhausting from the sr-7 valve. also, due to a manufacturing defect in the internal rubber check valve inside the sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the valves can become deformed and not seat properly. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | These conditions could either result in leakage and cause a delay in the application of the spring brake without warning or possibly lead to unintended vehicle rollaway or brake drag which could result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or death. | |||||||||||||||

| Defect Summary | Gulf stream is recalling 38 my 2005, 2008 and 2009 friendship, scenic cruiser, and tourmaster recreational vehicles equipped with zf model 8018 steering gears. these steering gears may have been assembled with the incorrect recirculating ball spacer. this could potentially allow the recirculating balls to escape from the recirculating ball circuit resulting in a loss of steering. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | The operator may notice higher required steering wheel inputs, or the need for more steering wheel adjustments while driving in a straight line in combination with metallic cracking noises prior to a loss of steering. loss of steering could result in a vehicle crash. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Gulf stream is working with daimler trucks to have the steering gear replace (please see 07v343). owners may contact daimler trucks at 1-800-547-0712 or gulf stream at 1-574-773-7761. | |||||||||||||||

| Defect Summary | Gulf stream is recalling 50 my 2008-2009 crescendo, yellowstone, and tourmaster recreational vehicles equipped with saf-holland adl series rear suspensions. in some instances the transverse beam was not properly welded which could result in a failure of the weld. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | If the weld fails, vehicle stability while cornering could be affected resulting in loss of vehicle control, possibly resulting in a crash. in addition, the transverse beam could drop to the ground causing sparks that could cause a fire hazard. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Gulf stream is working with daimler trucks and saf-holland to have a visual inspection of the adl transverse beam performed. if a weld defect is identified, saf-holland will provide a service replacement kit that contains a new transverse beam, all necessary installation hardware, beam replacement, and instructions free of charge (please see 08e031). owners may contact saf-holland at 1-231-773-3271, daimler trucks at 1-800-547-0712, or gulf stream at 1-574-773-7761. | |||||||||||||||
