Cruiser RV Recalls 2019 Travel Trailers Due to Axle Bearing Defect

Cruiser RV is recalling 2019 travel trailers because missing inner bearing races may cause hub failure and increase crash risk.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (axle/hub separation) that explicitly increases the risk of a crash, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Cruiser RV is recalling certain 2019 Embrace, Fun Finder Xtreme Lite, MPG, Radiance Ultra Lite, and Shadow Cruiser Ultra Lite travel trailers. The recall involves 129 vehicles where the axles may be missing inner bearing races on the hubs.

This defect can cause the bearing to burn out or the hub to overheat. Premature hub bearing failure may result in the separation of the hub from the axle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.

Cruiser will notify owners, and dealers will replace the defective hubs with new hubs or replace the axles free of charge. The recall began on October 9, 2018. Owners may contact Cruiser customer service at 1-574-206-7920 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
