- The defect
- DRV Suites (DRV) is recalling certain 2021 Mobile Suites fifth wheel trailers. The brake rotor bolts were improperly tightened, which can cause the bolts to become loose or fall off.
- What it can cause
- Loose or detached bolts can cause wheel separation, a tire blowout, or brake failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and tighten the bolts, if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 28, 2021. Owners may contact DRV customer service at 1-260-562-3500.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 77 vehicles this is a small campaign: 73% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2021, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2021, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
DRV vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic once before this, most recently in December 2016 as 16V949000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 22V649000 (exterior lighting), 21V733000 (service brakes, hydraulic).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by DRV Suites with NHTSA on September 17, 2021 as campaign 21V726000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
