Structure

Issue Description

On certain RV trailers and motorhomes equipped with frameless windows, the adhesive that attaches the vented portion of the windows may fail. If this happens, the glass could separate and fall from the motorhome or trailer.

Safety Risk

A window that detaches from the vehicle could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to an authorized dealer or service center to inspect and replace the vent window glass, as required.

Wheels

Issue Description

On certain motorhomes, the tire valve stem extension for the inner wheel may get damaged by contact with the outer wheel. If this happens, the inner tire could lose air pressure. This could overload the outer tire and cause it to fail.

Safety Risk

A tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorhome to a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) authorized service facility to inspect and adjust the inner wheel valve stem stabilizers, as needed. The inner valve stems will be replaced, if required.

Lights And Instruments

Issue Description

Certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner chassis could have a problem with the rear-mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM). This could cause the tail lights not to work properly. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2018-582. Vehicles that had an inspection, but did not have the PDM replaced under the previous recall, require a second repair under this recall.

Safety Risk

Brake lights, marker lights or turn signals that do not work properly could make the vehicle less visible. They could also cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking or intends to turn. This could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) authorized service facility to replace the PDM..
