What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2011 Monaco Vesta and Holiday Rambler Trip recreational vehicles manufactured between May 28, 2010, and May 18, 2011. The recall involves 78 units.

The fuse in the high beam headlight electrical circuit may blow under normal operating conditions. This can disable the headlights without warning, resulting in reduced driver visibility. Reduced visibility increases the risk of a crash, which could result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will modify the wiring and install an uprated fuse free of charge. Navistar intends to send out an interim notice to owners if parts will not be available before October 14, 2011. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-877-466-6226 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
