Problem: Navistar is recalling certain model year my 2001-2008 Workhorse W20, W21 and W22 chassis and certain model year 2009 through 2011 monaco RV admiral, arista, monarch, and riptide recreational vehicles equipped with axles that include Bosch zops or zoht pin slide hydraulic disc brakes.

The driver would normally have warning of the brake drag if undetected by the driver.
