What happened

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. is recalling certain 2006 through 2008 model year Crescendo, Sun Voyager, Independence, Bounty Hunters, and Yellowstone Class A diesel pusher motor homes built on Freightliner Custom Chassis between March 18, 2005, and December 2009. These vehicles are equipped with Bosch hydraulic disc brakes that may experience diametrical brake caliper piston growth and reduced piston to bore clearance when exposed to long periods of non-driving, potentially leading to brake drag and overheating.

The reduced brake performance increases the risk of a crash. The manufacturer will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. Owners may contact Gulf Stream Coach at 1-800-289-8787 or Daimler Trucks/FCCC at 1-800-547-0712 for more information.
