Braxton Creek Bushwhacker Travel Trailer Recall for Floor Separation Risk

Braxton Creek is recalling 2020-2021 Bushwhacker travel trailers because undersized lag bolts may allow the floor to separate from the frame, increasing crash risk.

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.

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

Plain-English summary

Braxton Creek RV is recalling certain 2020-2021 Bushwhacker 10FB and 2021 Bushwhacker 10SS travel trailers. The recall addresses a defect where the lag bolts securing the floor to the frame are of insufficient size. This condition may cause the bolts to pull through the floor, leading to the floor separating from the trailer's frame.

If the body of the trailer is not secured by the lag bolts, it could shift or separate from the frame. This structural failure increases the risk of a crash, injury, or death. The recall began on October 2, 2020.

Braxton will notify owners, and dealers will correct the issue by bolting the floor onto the frame using 3/8" x 2" bolts and washers with a lock nut, free of charge. Owners may contact Braxton customer service at 1-260-768-7932 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
