Monaco Rv recall: Visibility
What is wrong
Navistar is recalling certain model year 2011 riptide recreational vehicles. The porous metal castings may cause cracking of the wiper arm at the mounting to the pivot shaft. Material cracking at the pivot shaft could result in the wiper arm being disabled without warning which could lead to reduced driver visibility.
What could happen
Decreased drivers visibility may increase the risk of a crash possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
The fix
Dealers will replace the drivers and passengers side wiper arms free of charge. The safety recall began on march 11, 2011. Owners may contact navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
