What this recall means for you
Certain 2019 Cruiser RV travel trailers may have rear axles missing an inner bearing race on the hubs. Without it, the hub bearing can burn out or the hub can overheat, which may lead to premature bearing failure.
If the bearing fails, the hub could separate from the axle, meaning a wheel could come loose while the trailer is in motion. That raises the risk of a crash. Owners should take this recall seriously and avoid towing until the problem is addressed.
Cruiser will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the defective hubs with new hubs or replace the axles, free of charge. Owners can contact Cruiser customer service at 1-574-206-7920 (recall number 99.03.15). You can also check your trailer's VIN for open recalls.
