Outdoors RV Manufacturing (ORV) is recalling 140 model year 2015-2017 Glacier Peak fifth-wheel travel trailers.
The trailers have a pin box that may flex resulting in metal fatigue and possibly the separation of the fifth-wheel trailer from the tow vehicle.
If the fifth-wheel separates from the tow vehicle there would be an increased risk of a crash.
What to do
ORV has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the pin box, reinforcing it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 26, 2016.
Owners may contact ORV customer service at 1-541-962-1866 extension 222. ORV's number for this recall is 2016-001.
