- The problem
- Fleetwood is recalling 509 my 2001-2008 class a motor homes equipped with axles that include bosch zops or zoht pin slide hydraulic disc brakes. When combined with occasional or seasonal vehicle operation may experience calipers sticking in the applied position. This can result in abnormal heat generation at the wheel end causing brake drag. The driver would normally have warning of the brake drag if undetected by the driver.
- The risk
- The driver would normally detect the brake drag but if undetected the temperature increase at the wheel end can eventually lead to soft pedal conditions due to brake fluid boil, and possible extended stopping distance increasing the risk of a crash.
- The fix
- Dealers will inspect and replace the necessary components free of charge. Workhorse is handling the remedy for this campaign please see 09v-110. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners may contact workhorse at 1-877-246-7731. Workhorse will conduct the owner and dealer notification.

Owners who do not feel comfortable installing this label can take their motor home to any fleetwood dealer and the dealer will install the label for them. The recall began on july 28, 2008. Owners may contact fleetwood at 1-800-509-3418.
- The problem
- On certain motor homes, the slide-out room may activate while traveling, causing the overall vehicle width to increase. Water can short out the electronic control relay for the slide-out room control mechanism.

- The fix
- Dealers will inspect and if necessary, relocate certain electrical components and seal associated compartments from the elements. The recall began on january 11, 2008. Owners may contact fleetwood at 1-800-322-8216.
