What happened

NU WA Industries is recalling certain 2006 Custom Campers HH II and 2006-2007 Custom Campers LS Travel Trailers equipped with Lippert axle components. These vehicles may have mis-located welds that attach the axle spindle to the axle tube, which could cause the spindle to partially or completely separate from the axle tube. If this occurs, the wheel and hub assembly may come off the vehicle, potentially striking other vehicles and pedestrians and causing injury, death, or property damage.

NU WA is working with Lippert to inspect and replace defective axles on recalled vehicles at no charge. The recall began September 18, 2010. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Lippert Components, Inc.'s Axle Service & Warranty Department at 1-877-870-4900.
