Summary

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. "Gulfstream" is recalling certain 2020-2021 Super-Lite 19RD Travel Trailers. When the black water holding tank is full, the clearance between the axle and the black water holding tank may be insufficient.

Consequence

Axle contact with the black water holding tank may result in a hole, spilling the tank contents on the road way, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Gulf Stream will notify owners, and dealers will replace the axle with a drop axle to allow more clearance between the top of the axle tube and the black water holding tank. The recall began August 5, 2020. Owners may contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787.
