PCU-CHANNEL SHEARED OFF DRIVER SIDE, REAR AXLE. THE PCU CHANNEL (OR SHACKLE) IS WHAT THE LEAF SPRING BOLTS TO WHICH HOLDS THE AXLE IN PLACE WHICH THE TIRES ARE CONNECTED TO. THIS WAS DISCOVERED AFTER OUR RETURN FROM A TRIP WHILE DISCONNECTING THE TRAILER. THE DRIVER SIDE TIRE HAD MOVED FORWARD 2 1/2 INCHES AND THE TRAILER WAS LOWER THAN NORMAL AS THE FRAME HAD DROPPED AND WAS ONLY BEING HELD UP BY THE BOLT THAT CONNECTS THE LEAF SPRING TO THE PCU-CHANNEL. WE HAVE MANY PICTURES. WE CONTACTED SKYLINE (THE MANUFACTURER) CUSTOMER SERVICE IN HEMET, CA. APPARENTLY THE 2006 TRAILER (DOP 9/24/2005) IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THEY REFERRED US TO LCI (THE FRAME BUILDER, REFERENCE CALL # 228845) AND STATED THE SAME BUT AS COURTESY THEY SENT US A REPLACEMENT PCU-CHANNEL. WE ARE NOW WAITING FOR A RETURN CALL FROM THE DIVISION MANAGER FROM SKYLINE IN HEMET, CA - HE SAID THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY BUT HE WOULD LOOK INTO IT AND GET BACK TO US. SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND IT APPEARS THAT WE ARE LEFT TO FIX THIS OURSELVES WE CONTACTED A WELDER. DURING HIS EXAMINATION HE STATED THAT THE WELDS ON THE BROKEN PCU-CHANNEL LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE UNDER CUT (OVER WELDED) I.E., POOR WORKMANSHIP. IT WAS ALSO DISCOVERED THAT TWO OF THE OTHER THREE PCU-CHANNELS WERE/ARE BENT. THIS TRAILER HAS ROUGHLY 5,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER BEEN TAKEN OFF-ROAD. WE FEEL VERY LUCKY THAT THIS FAILURE DID NOT CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND INJURY OR DEATH TO US OR SOMEONE ELSE. *TR
Skyline Corporation (Skyline) is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 recreational vehicle travel trailers and fifth-wheel trailers manufactured January 1, 2006, through May, 31, 2013 and equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the travel trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: Skyline will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on April 7, 2014. Owners may contact Skyline at 1-800-755-6521 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.

THE REFRIGERATOR MAY HAVE A DEFECT IN THE BOILER TUBE. PRESSURIZED COOLANT SOLUTION COULD BE RELEASED INTO AN AREA WHERE AN IGNITION SOURCE (GAS FLAME) IS PRESENT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS SOLUTION IS EXPOSED TO AN IGNITION SOURCE UNDER CERTAIN SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES, IT CAN RESULT IN A VEHICLE FIRE.
