2014 Lakota Charger recalls

Recall 13V-301: Equipment

Reported Jul 15, 2013 · 49 vehicles affected · Lakota Corporation

Problem: Lakota Corp (Lakota) is recalling certain model year 2014 CX9-BBX18 (Charger and Bighorn) recreational trailers. Due to a design change in the power awning motor assembly, the motor assembly screws may unknowingly shear.

Risk: If motor damage occurs, it is possible that the awning can unfurl unexpectedly, either while the motorhome is at rest or while in transit, increasing the risk of personal injury or a vehicle crash.

Fix: Lakota will notify owners and Dometic staff will replace the affected motors with motors of a different design. The recall began during September 2013. Owners may contact Lakota Corp at 1-574-848-1636 or Dometic at 1-888-447-0003 for more information. Owners are being instructed not to drive their vehicle until repairs can be performed.

Purchased a used 2013 lakota camper trailer in 2015. Looked very new, and tires showed little sign of wear, which matched the owners description of having low mileage. However, on trip out west a tire on the left side began to come apart after only 200 miles. This happened on the interstate, so we were going ~ 70 MPH. We stopped when we heard the thumping and put on the spare. But after another 200 miles the spare blew out too. The tire was completely shredded this time. The other three tires made it for the next 4000 miles.
