On certain fifth wheel travel trailers equipped with a bearing option known as NEV-R-LUBE, the retainer ring designed to hold the bearing in place was omitted during assembly. The absence of the retaining ring can allow the hub to shift inward and may result in brake interference or tire contact to the vehicle structure. Braking problems can result in a loss of control of the vehicle. Tire contact to the vehicle structure can result in overheating and potentially lead to a fire of cause the tire to blowout. Correction: Dealers will inspect and repair the affected axles.
