On certain P30 vehicles, a Fluid leak in the auto-apply hydraulic parking brake system may cause the parking brake to apply while the vehicle is being driven. This would cause the brakes to drag and the "brake" telltale to come on. If the driver ignores the "brake" telltale and continues to drive with the parking brake applied, the parking brake system could fail. If the driver then attempted to park the vehicle and released the brake pedal, the motor home could roll. Correction: An auto-park brake system service kit will be installed, the hydraulic power system will be bled and the parking brake will be adjusted.

On certain P3-42 chassis, the 19.5 X 6 front steel wheel discs may exhibit circumferential cracking which if undetected could cause the rim portion of the wheel to separate inboard resulting in a possible vehicle crash. Correction: All wheels (including spare wheel if one exists) will be replaced with newly designed wheels.
A failure of this component (suspension) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

On certain P3 vehicles with Dana model 80 rear axles, a missing rear axle outer bearing retaining ring and/or greater than specified bearing end play will allow the wheel rotor and hub assembly to shift relative to the spindle. This can cause the brake caliper to recede farther than normal into the piston bore. This would require greater than normal fluid displacement when the brakes are applied and could result in the vehicle not meeting the requirements of CMVSS 105 - Hydraulic Brake Systems. Correction: rear axle hubs will be inspected and corrected if necessary.
