Jayco Travel Trailer JAY Flight Recall 18V618: Trailer Hub Bearings May Fail, Risking Wheel Separation

NHTSA campaign 18V618, reported September 12, 2018, 416 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some axles on these travel trailers may be missing inner bearing races in the hubs. Without them, the hub bearing can wear out prematurely or overheat, and in the worst case the hub can separate from the axle while the trailer is moving, which increases the risk of a crash.

If you own a 2019 Jayco White Hawk, Jay Flight, or Jay Flight SLX travel trailer, the manufacturer will notify you and authorized dealers will replace the defective hubs with new ones or replace the axles at no cost to you. Contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-517-9137 and reference recall number 9901410. You should also check your vehicle identification number for any open recalls.
