Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Damon Corporation is recalling certain 2007-2011 Challenger and 2005-2007 Intruder motor homes because the rear suspension leaf spring does not have proper clearance from the liquid propane fuel tank. As the suspension moves, the leaf spring shackle bolt could contact and potentially puncture the tank, creating a risk of fire or explosion that could cause property damage, personal injury, or death.
Owners of affected motor homes should contact Damon's Warranty Service Department at 877-855-2867. Damon will inspect whether proper clearance exists between the shackle bolt and tank. If clearance is inadequate, Damon will relocate the tank to provide proper clearance at no cost to the owner. The recall began on October 6, 2010.
