  1. Linkages (vehicle speed control)

    NHTSA 92V118000 Reported 3,200 vehicles potentially affected HOLIDAY RAMBLER CORP.

    A leak of either gasoline or propane can occur in components of the dual fuel system. This condition is primarily the result of the configuration and location of components in areas where high temperatures are being generated by the engine and exhaust systems.

    Remedy: Remove the dual fuel system components, seal the propane tank liquid withdrawal valve, and restore a viable gasoline fuel delivery system.

  2. Delivery (fuel system)

    NHTSA 83V031000 Reported 1,587 vehicles potentially affected HOLIDAY RAMBLER CORP.

    The fuel switch on the dual fuel control has been wired incorrectly. The switch was wired in such a way that the driver could be pumping propane to the carburetor.

    Remedy: The dealer will rewire the fuel select switch at no charge to owner.

  3. Electrical system: front underhood

    NHTSA 82V132000 Reported 1,244 vehicles potentially affected HOLIDAY RAMBLER CORP.

    The routing and fastening of the auxiliary starter cable in the area of the engine compartment is fastened in such a fashion that it may, through contact with a frame member, chafe and create an electrical short.

    Remedy: The auxiliary starter wiring will be refastened; in the event of any chafing, it will be replaced. This will be performed at no cost to owner.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Under federal law, manufacturers must fix safety recalls at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from the date of sale to the first owner. Contact any authorised Holiday Rambler dealer with your VIN and the NHTSA campaign number (for example 82V132000).

What is the difference between a recall and a complaint?

A recall is a safety campaign filed by the manufacturer or ordered by NHTSA, with a defined defect and remedy. A complaint is a report an owner sent to NHTSA; it is not verified, but patterns of complaints are what trigger NHTSA investigations and, eventually, recalls.
