- Summary
- On certain travel and fifth wheel trailers equipped with hickory springs 'big easy triple steps,' an improper engagement of the bottom step pivot arm with the formed stop edge of the middle step support bracket can result in the bottom step rotating to an unsafe downward angle.
- Consequence
- A person could be injured should the step give way while being used to enter or exit the trailer.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the trailers for the manufacturing date sticker to verify the date of production of the step and, if necessary, will weld stock to each side of the lower (triple) step stop edges. The recall began on March 30, 2007. Owners may contact jayco at 1-800-283-8267.

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