On certain motorhomes, the bolts attaching the rear trailer hitch to the frame may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. If the bolts loosen, the trailer hitch could separate from the vehicle. A hitch assembly or a towed unit separating from the towing vehicle could strike another vehicle, stationary object, or bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will tighten the trailer hitch fasteners to specifications.
