Gulf Stream is recalling 2020-2021 Super-Lite 19RD travel trailers because the rear axle may contact the black water tank, causing spills and crash risks.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (axle clearance) that poses a risk of harm (crash) due to spilled contents, but no injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Gulf Stream Coach, Inc. is recalling certain 2020-2021 Super-Lite 19RD travel trailers. The recall addresses a potential safety defect in the rear axle assembly where the clearance between the axle and the black water holding tank may be insufficient when the tank is full.

This insufficient clearance may result in the axle contacting the black water holding tank. Such contact can create a hole in the tank, causing its contents to spill onto the roadway, which increases the risk of a crash.

Gulf Stream will notify owners, and dealers will replace the axle with a drop axle to allow more clearance between the top of the axle tube and the black water holding tank. The recall began on August 5, 2020. Owners may contact Gulf Stream customer service at 1-800-289-8787 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
