The problem
ON CERTAIN MOTORHOMES BUILT ON WORKHORSE CHASSIS AND EQUIPPED WITH BOSCH ZOPS BRAKE CALIPERS, THE PADS CAN DRAG ON THE ROTOR SURFACE DUE TO THE PIN SLIDE.
Risk
A HANG UP OR LOCK UP MAY CAUSE THE CALIPERS TO OVER HEAT AND NOT ALLOW THE DRIVER TO STOP SAFELY. THIS COULD CAUSE OVERHEATING OF THE BRAKE CALIPERS WHICH COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE FIRE.
What owners should do
WORKHORSE IS NOTIFYING CUSTOMERS AND WILL ARRANGE TO HAVE THE CALIPERS AND BRAKE PADS REPLACED ON THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT WORKHORSE AT 1-877-294-6773 OR NEWMAR AT 1-574-773-5153.
