September 5, 2011 - The National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that Navistar is recalling certain model year 2011 Holiday Rambler Trip and Monaco Vista recreational vehicles (RVs), due to a defect in the electrical system. An accident caused by a defective product may be eligible for a Missouri defective product claim.
The defect is found in the high beam headlight electrical circuit, which could blow out during normal operation of the RV. This can happen without any warning, leaving the driver unable to see.
The potential loss of visibility as a result of the headlight fuse blowing out could increase the risk of a serious crash, resulting in serious injuries, property damage or even death.
Owners of these RVs will be notified by Navistar. Free of charge, dealers will install a new fuse and modify the wiring accordingly. Owners can also contact Navistar directly.
If you were seriously injured as a result of a malfunctioning component to your RV or any other type of vehicle, then you may be eligible to collect compensation. You should speak to a Missouri defective product attorney as soon as possible to evaluate your case and determine what legal actions you can take.
