NOTICE OF WORKHORSE RECALL ------------------
In the past year we have had this problem with all 4 of our disc brakes on our 2004 37C Pace Arrow. I talked with Workhorse earlier this week and was told that notices would be going out in June to effected vehicle owners. If you have had repairs already made you should still be able to file for reimbursement but need to contact Workhorse for a reimbursement form. There is a number towards the bottom of this e-mail. Be sure to have your VIN# available or be prepared for the Customer Service rep to hassle you a bit. WH should still be able to search for your vehicle if you tell them the name it is registered under. You will also need proof of repair and proof of payment. Just a copy of the bill from the repair facility is not enough.
If you notice that you have fluid steaks on any of your tires or some odd stains you are probably having this problem and may not be aware of it. It was a little unnerving when our breaks went out in the Smokey Mountains last month and frustrating when we had to pay to have our breaks repaired for a 3rd time.
Hope this helps some of you.
