Kongsberg Power Products Systems I, Inc., (KPPS) is submiting this notice of defect on behalf of Monaco Coach regarding certain motorhomes equipped with an adjustable brake pedal assembly. The brake pedal arm may loosen, rotate around its shaft, and swing in front of the accelerator pedal. Should the brake pedal arm contact and engage the accelerator pedal, it could result in extended stopping distances and a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: KPPS will provide a clamp assembly kit along with installation instructions.
On certain vehicles, cargo carrying capacity value was not listed on the compliance label. The missing data might prevent the operator from knowing the proper loading capacity of the vehicle, possibly leading to an overloading situation, affecting vehicle handling and stability, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will install an updated label.
On certain motorhomes equipped with a Cummins engine, improper installation of a boss plug during engine assembly could create stresses in the cylinder block casting. These stresses could eventually create open cracks in the cylinder block or result in less than adequate clamping pressure around the plug. When the plug loses it's clamping pressure, it will loosen from the cavity, causing an oil leak. This leakage of oil near the exhaust manifold and turbocharger has the potential to ignite and cause a fire in the engine compartment. Correction: Dealers will install a steel cup plug boss cap which is attached over the boss/cup plug location with an industrial sealant.

On certain vehicles, the seat belt buckle anchorage on the driver and passenger seats can separate from the seat frame. This failure could result in unrestrained occupants during a crash which could lead to personal injury. Correction: Dealer will install a reinforcement bushing and a grade 5 bolt to the seatbelt anchorage system.
On certain motorhomes, the I-beam leaf imitators in the front axle suspension and the panhard bar bracket on the rear axle have the potential to crack and break due to inadequate welding process. If this happens, it could cause a loss of vehicle control and a crash. Correction: Dealer will replace the front suspension I-beams and weld stiffeners from the panhard bar bracket to the center differential of the rear axle housing.
