Plain-English summary

Highland Ridge RV is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Roamer, Mesa Ridge, Light, 3X, and Journeyer travel and fifth wheel trailers. The affected units were manufactured between March 6, 2015, and March 26, 2015. A total of 238 vehicles are included in this recall.

The defect involves screws that attach the expanding room to the sliding mechanism cable. These screws may fail, allowing the room to extend unintentionally while the vehicle is in motion. If the room extends while the vehicle is moving, there is an increased risk of a crash.

Highland will notify owners, and dealers will replace the slide room mechanism attaching screws free of charge. The recall began on May 5, 2015. Owners may contact Highland customer service at 1-260-768-7771 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
