Manufacturer Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC
Components STRUCTURE
Potential Number of Units Affected 104
Summary
Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Milestone fifth-wheel trailers. The outriggers may bend due to loading within the rear storage area.
Remedy
Heartland will notify owners, and dealers will reinforce the frame, free of charge. The recall began December 4, 2020. Owners may contact Heartland customer service at 1-877-262-8032.
Notes
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.safercar.gov.
Purpose
This document refers to the chassis of the models listed to add reinforcement supports to key areas lacking wall structure, outrigger bending and negative effects on the frame’s camber.
Safety
Read and understand all instructions before installing or operating this product. Adhere to all safety labels. This document provides general instructions. Many variables can change the circumstances of any procedure, i.e. the degree of difficulty involved in the service operation and the ability level of the individual performing the operation. This document cannot begin to plot out procedures for every possibility, but will provide the general instructions for effectively installing, removing or servicing the system. In the event the skill level required is too advanced or the procedure too difficult, a certified technician should be consulted before performing the necessary operation. Failure to correctly install, remove or service the system may result in voiding the warranty, inflicting injury or even death.

2. Lift front and rear of chassis/frame with floor jacks and stabilize with jack stands according to
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Note: LCI recommends rear jack stands should be 12”-24” from rear of the trailer and front jack stands
should be at least 12” from the landing gear.

Removal of Existing Hangers
On the curbside and roadside of the chassis:
1. With a non-permanent marker, mark the center location of each hanger (Fig. 2).
2. Use a blow torch or plasma cutter to remove the old hangers from the I-beams (Fig. 2). Use care not to
damage the I-beam during the cutting process.
3. Use a grinder to smooth the cut area on the I-beam.
Installation of Service Kit
Note: Refer to Heartland Milestone 360RD Service Kits chart for appropriate crush tube usage.
1. Place two crush tubes on sawhorses or other supports.
2. From one end of the tube, measure to the center of the tube (59″) and mark the location (Fig. 3).
3. From the center mark, measure out in each direction 30 1/2″. Mark each new location (Fig. 3).

tab is flush with the top of the I-beam’s rail.
A. Make sure the tops of the mated outriggers are flush to one another (Fig. 19A) and their underside
surfaces are flush to the top of the I-beam rail.
