The problem
Midwest Automotive Designs, LLC (Midwest) is recalling certain 2017-2022 Luxe Cruiser, Ultimate Club J, and Ultimate Presidential motorhomes. The alloy wheels installed on the vehicles are insufficient for the vehicle weight, which can cause the wheels to crack and fail.
The risk
A cracked or broken wheel increases the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will remove the alloy wheels and replace them with steel wheels, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 22, 2023. Owners may contact Midwest customer service at 1-574-522-4878.
Contacts
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
