I’ve just received a letter from Peugeot telling me that my Motorhome needs to have its spare wheel fixing system checked and possibly replaced to prevent the spare wheel detaching itself from the Motorhome.

This operation was launched on 21st July 2011 but they have no record of me having had it done but of course that’s because I didn’t know anything about it until today.  As usual with these things it will be completed free of charge.

The work will prevent any potentially incorrect securing of the spare wheel.  I presume from this that they have had a number of Motorhomes that have discovered that their spare wheels have been lost somewhere which will be a real blow if you happened to get a puncture.  Now, as far as I know, I still have my spare wheel secured under the Motorhome but to be honest I’ve never checked since I picked it up.  Hopefully I’m not in for a surprise!!

Here is a copy of the recall details I found on VOSA and a link to it if you need it.  Check your vehicle ID to see if this applies to you and if it does and you haven’t had a recall notification then ring the recall helpline on 0845 756 5556.
