Engine and engine cooling:engine:dieselJul 20, 2007 · NHTSA campaign 07V311000 · 747 vehicles

Problem: On certain motor homes built with cummins isl cm850 diesel engines, the connecting rod contains a machining defect in the wrist pin bushing of the rod that could cause a seizure of the piston pin.

Risk: If allowed to progress, this can lead to engine failure with the possibility of the rod rupturing the lock cavity, oil and debris on the roadway and vehicle crash.

Fix: Monaco is working with cummins to recalibrate the engine control module and enhance the engine protection system enabling it to provide early detection of the failure mode and avoid more serious engine damage and resultant safety hazard. Cummins will also install a new valve cover with a crankcase pressure sensor free of charge (please see 07e033). Owners may contact cummins at 800-343-7357 or monaco at 1-800-685-6545.

Exterior lighting:headlights:switchAug 24, 2005 · NHTSA campaign 05V366000 · 451 vehicles

Problem: On certain motor homes, the headlight switch in the front electrical box/firewall can overload.

Risk: Changes in the component supplier relay requirements with an updated controller were causing the headlights to stop functioning without warning. This could potentially cause a crash while driving at night.

Fix: Dealers will install a new wiring harness. The recall began on september 30, 2005. Owners may contact monaco at 1-800-685-6545.

Risk: The surface temperature of the exhaust tube exiting from the heater can increase and could potentially ignite combustible materials in or around the vehicle.

Fix: Dealers will replace the combustion chambers (burner tubes) with a new one free of charge. Owners may contact monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
