What happened

Thor Motor Coach is recalling certain recreational vehicles manufactured between March 2007 and August 2008, including 2007-2010 Damon Challenger, 2008-2009 Challenger Platinum, 2007-2011 Daybreak, 2010 Daybreak Classic, 2009-2010 Daybreak Sport, 2007-2009 Outlaw, and 2011 Four Winds Hurricane models. The fuel-fill cap assemblies that seal the unused side of the dual-fill gasoline fuel tank were made with hose material that does not meet design specifications and may deteriorate during normal use, creating a risk of fuel leaks that could cause fires resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.

Navistar/Workhorse will replace the defective fuel-fill cap assemblies with properly designed ones at no cost to owners. Affected consumers should contact Navistar at 1-260-461-1890 to arrange the service.
