The problem
STARCRAFT IS RECALLING 108 MY 2009 TRAVEL STAR EXP TRAILERS. THE SCREWS USED TO ATTACH THE BUNK DOOR CABLES TO THE BUNK DOORS MAY BE OF INSUFFICIENT LENGTH, WHICH COULD RESULT IN THE CABLE BECOMING DETACHED FROM THE DOOR WHILE THE TRAVEL TRAILER IS PARKED AND SET UP WITH THE BUNK DOORS OPEN.
The risk
IF THIS CONDITION IS NOT ADDRESSED, IT COULD POSSIBLY RESULT IN AN INJURY. THERE IS NO POTENTIAL FOR THIS SITUATION TO OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS BEING TOWED.
What to do
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE SCREWS ATTACHING THE CABLES TO THE BUNK DOOR WITH LONGER FASTENERS. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING JULY 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT STARCRAFT AT 1-800-945-4787.
