Transport Canada runs its own recall programme. Its campaigns do not always
mirror the American ones, so a Canadian owner reading a US-only list is
reading about a different car than the one on their driveway.

Recall 2010300
8 Sep 2010
15 units in Canada
Suspension
Certain motorhomes may not have the proper clearance between the rear suspension leaf spring and the vehicle liquid propane (LP) fuel tank. As the suspension travels it is possible for the leaf spring shackle bolt to come in contact with the LP tank. This potentially could puncture the tank and result in a fire or explosion. In the event of a fire or explosion, there is a potential for property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect to see if the proper clearance between the shackle bolt and the LP tank exists. If it is found there is not enough clearance, the tank will be relocated outboard in the motorhome to provide the proper clearance.

Brakes
On certain motorhomes, the brake calipers may stick in the applied position. This can result in abnormal heat generation at the wheel end which, if undetected, could eventually lead to soft brake pedal condition due to brake fluid boil. Extended stopping distances may result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.

On certain motorhomes equipped with a Dometic Corporation refrigerator, a fatigue crack can develop in the boiler tube. This could allow the release of pressurized coolant solution into an area where an ignition source is present, which could result in a vehicle fire. Correction: Dealers will install a secondary burner housing.

Other
On certain motorhomes equipped with a Norcold Inc. refrigerator, a fatigue crack in the section of the cooling unit which contains the refrigerant could allow the liquid solution to slowly leak. If a leak occurs and the refrigerator continues to be operated after solution circulation has ceased, hydrogen gas may be expelled and can be ignited. This could result in a fire, causing property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the refrigerators cooling unit.

Visual System
Certain motorhomes fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 108 - Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment. The rear reflex reflector (red) and the intermediate reflex reflector (amber) were omitted during vehicle assembly. Inadequate reflex reflection would reduce the vehicle's visibility during night driving conditions, which could cause a crash. Correction: Reflectors with permanent adhesive backing will be mailed to owners along with installation instructions. In the event the owner does not feel comfortable installing the reflectors, they will be instructed to take their vehicle to the nearest Damon dealer to have the repair done free of charge.

Steering
On certain vehicles equipped with Workhorse Custom Chassis, an incorrect steering intermediate shaft may have been installed. The incorrect part has a finer pitch spline. Use of the incorrect part may cause the spline not to match correctly with the steering gear input shaft. This could cause the spline to strip if the steering wheel is turned with a significant amount of force. This failure is likely only to occur when the vehicle is stopped or during tight turning manoeuvres at very low speeds. This condition may result in a loss of steering control. Correction: Dealers will replace the shaft.
