- The problem
- Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling various 2002-2016 recreational vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V746-9524.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Newest first, as filed with NHTSA by owners.
I own a 2013 jayco greyhawk motorhome on the ford e-450 chassis equipped with michelin ltx m/s tires, lt225-75r-16. The original equipment tires had 26,000 miles on them before problems developed. On my trip to florida last month, I had to replace 3 of 6 tires due to the tread delaminating completely from the tire as if they were retreads. This happened on the interstate traveling at 65 mph.

I have contacted michelin about them, but don't appear to be very concerned even though they have had a previous safety recall for this specfic size tire for the same specfic reasons! The original recall was for these tires manufactured between 0210 - 2512. Supposedly the problem was corrected even though mine was manufactured just 6 weeks after the safety recall ended. Another complaint was written up by another motorhome operator in the september 2016 motorhome magazine on page 120. The tires were the same age. I wrote about them on the jayco forum page and this was a response I got," senior member join date: apr 2016 location: la grange posts: 119 I have the same greyhawk a 2009 had those tires at 25 thousand they fell apart, did not replace them with mitchelin it looks like michelin still has problems with these tires, but want ignore it since many owners of these motorhomes don't run into these issues unless they put the miles on these tires.
