Plain-English summary

DRV Suites, formerly DoubleTree RV, is recalling certain model year 2008 and 2010-2011 Mobile, Select, and Elite Suite recreational vehicles manufactured between June 12, 2007, and October 27, 2010. The recall affects vehicles equipped with disc brakes.

The defect involves paint applied to the aluminum wheel and hub face, which may cause the wheel to become loose. This situation can result in the wheel or rim moving, shearing of the wheel studs, and the wheel coming off the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

DRV will notify owners, and dealers will remove the paint from the hub face and the back of the wheels free of charge. The safety recall began on March 5, 2012. Owners may contact DRV at 1-574-457-6472 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
