The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
- Autocar is recalling certain 2021 Xpeditor and 2020-2021 Legend vehicles. A machining defect may cause the power steering pump to fail, resulting in a loss of power steering assist. A loss of power steering assist can increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 586 vehicles are affected by this recall.
- Mack Trucks is recalling certain 2020-2022 Mack MD vehicles. The cotter pin that retains the brake pedal clevis pin may not have been properly installed, which could result in an unsecured brake pedal. An unsecured brake pedal can cause a loss of braking ability and increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 2,823 vehicles are affected by this recall.
- Starcraft RV is recalling certain 2021-2022 Starcraft Autumn Ridge Outfitter, 2021 Super Lite, and Telluride recreational vehicles, equipped with Winntec model 6020 two-stage propane regulators. The regulator may fail, causing an increase in propane pressure. Increased propane pressure can enlarge the flames in gas appliances, increasing the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 1,512 vehicles are affected by the recall.
- Tiffin Motorhomes is recalling certain 2018-2022 Allegro Breeze, Allegro Red, Allegro, Allegro Bus, Phaeton, and 2018-2021 Zephyr recreational vehicles. The sofa seat belts may not have been installed correctly, which could result in unsecured passengers. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages." Unsecured passengers have an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 10,409 vehicles are affected by the recall.
- Triple E Recreational Vehicles (Triple E) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Unity U24IB, U24TB, U24RL, Wonder W24RL, and W24RTB vehicles. The 12-volt wire for the illuminated assist handle is routed too close to the refrigerator exhaust, which could melt the wire and blow the fuse. A melted wire and blown fuse can increase the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 550 vehicles are affected by this recall.
