Keystone RV is recalling certain model year 2010 Raptor fifth wheel motorhomes manufactured from September 25, 2009 through March 2, 2010. The remote receiver is not compatible with the high speed landing gear motor. If the motor is operated in a binding situation, the remote receiver may be damaged and overheat due to an inadequate breaker and fuse protection and the excessive current draw of the motor. Continuing to operate the landing gear motor in this condition will increase the risk of fire. Keystone RV will notify owners and the vehicles will be repaired free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during July 2010. Owners may contact Keystone RV at 1-866-425-4369.

Champion Bus has notified NHTSA of a defect in certain model year 2007-2010 motorhomes fitted with Ricon public use lifts. The restraint belt on these lifts was designed to prevent the lift from moving, unless the tongue of the belt is fully engaged and latched in the buckle. Ricon has discovered, however, that it is possible for the operator to insert the belt tongue into the buckle without fully engaging the latching mechanism. In this case, the restraint belt would appear to be latched, and the operator could run the lift. If the restraint belt tongue is not fully engaged into the restraint belt buckle, and latched, the lift may operate with an occupant on the platform. The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move without the restraint belt properly buckled. Champion bus is working with Ricon and Ricon will be handling the remedy for this campaign. Please see Ricon's defect report 09E-060. Ricon will provide customers with a warning decal and a DVD-based training aid. The safety recall is expected to begin during April 2010. Owners may contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884, emailing at

Heartland is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Cyclone fifth wheel trailers for failing to comply with the requirements of Part 567, "Certification." It has been determined that these vehicles were manufactured with incorrect axle information printed on the federal certification label. The actual axle rating (GAWR) is 5,080 lbs and is listed as 5,200 lbs on the label. A vehicle with the axles loaded beyond the specified weight rating may result in axle failure leading to poor vehicle handling and increasing the risk of a crash. The Federal certification label will be replaced free of charge with one that has the correct GAWR listed for each axle. The recall is expected to begin during April 2010. Owners may contact Heartland at 1-877-262-8032.
