Problem: On certain class a and class b motor homes, the hitch May have been manufactured with a spacer plate that does not fit flush to the rear extension.

Original NHTSA wording

ON CERTAIN CLASS A AND CLASS B MOTOR HOMES, THE HITCH MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH A SPACER PLATE THAT DOES NOT FIT FLUSH TO THE REAR EXTENSION.

Risk: This causes the fasteners to be corner loaded when tightened which could cause the hitch to fail during usage causing a crash which could result in death and injury.
