Affects Jayco Seismic Fifth Wheel Trailer, Talon Fifth Wheel Trailer · 2018 — about 61 vehicles.

The hazard

Issue: On certain fifth-wheel trailers, incorrect bolts were used to install the fuel tank. If the tank is not properly attached, it could separate from the trailer and create a fuel leak. Safety Risk: Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source could increase the risk of a fire. Additionally, if the fuel tank separates from the trailer, it could also create a hazard for other road users and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the six bolts that secure the fuel tank brace. Any incorrect bolts will be replaced as required.
