- Summary
- On certain motor homes built on workhorse chassis and equipped with GM 8.1L V8 engines, improper hardening during the heat treatment process can cause the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clip to fracture, resulting in inadequate retention of the damper. If the damper becomes loose, fuel could be pumped by the fuel pump into the under hood area.
- Consequence
- In the presence of an ignition source, a fire could result.
- Remedy
- Chevrolet and workhorse are handling the owner notification and remedy for this campaign (please see 06V225 and 06V289). Dealers will replace the fuel rail pulse damper retainer clips on these engines free of charge. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, workhorse at 877-294-6773 or thor industries at 937-596-6849.

Has your Four Winds 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 Four Winds dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
