- Summary
- On motor home chassis built by workhorse and equipped with bosch brakes, the pads can drag on the rotor surface due to the pin slide.
- Consequence
- 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.

- Workhorse is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Dealers will repair the brake caliper. Owners should contact workhorse at 1-877-294-6773 or coachmen at 219-825-5821.

Has your Coachmen been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Coachmen dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
