Certain motor homes built on freightliner chassis may have been manufactured with tie rods that are too short for the front axle crossbar taper.

Summary: Certain motor homes built on freightliner chassis may have been manufactured with tie rods that are too short for the front axle crossbar taper. The resulting gap between the crossbar and tie rod end may result in corrosion between the 2 pieces. Lack of maintenance would increase the possibility of corrosion.
Consequence: Excessive corrosion over time could cause the crossbar to tie rod connection to fail, causing a lack of steering control and potential crash.
Remedy: Freightliner is conducting this recall. Dealers will inspect the tie rod and replace it if necessary with a longer tie rod assembly. If the tie rod is replaced, a toe-in alignment procedure will also be performed. Owners may contact freightliner at 800-385-4357 or alfa leisure at 800-373-3372.

Has your Alfa 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.

Check your VIN with NHTSA

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Alfa dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
