Summary

New Horizons RV Corporation "New Horizons" is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Summit and Majestic recreational vehicles manufactured March 11, 2013, to January 30, 2015. In the affected vehicles, a rivet for the quad entry steps may shear and fail, causing the steps to give when being used.

Consequence

If the rivet shears under occupant load, the steps may give and the occupant may fall, increasing the risk of personal injury.

Remedy

New Horizons will notify owners, and dealers will remove the rivets and the step sections will be bolted together, free of charge. The recall began on July 7, 2015. Owners may contact New Horizons customer service at 1-800-238-3140.
