Certain coaches, previously repaired under recall 2003251, may suffer tag axle swing arm failure. Inadequate welding process may have introduced microfractures and/or welds with insufficient penetration. As a result, tag axle swing arm cracks can spread and result in a partial or total separation of the tag axle assembly, causing a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the tag axle swing arm with an updated version. Note: This action supersedes recall 2006353.
A failure of this component (suspension) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

If not corrected, this crack could propagate and result in a complete separation of the tag axle from the coach. Correction: Dealer will repair or replace the swing arm assembly.
