Certain refrigerators used in Recreational Vehicles (RVs) contain either a sensing algorithm or a thermal switch to interrupt power when it detects high temperatures that could lead to a fire. An insufficient response time can result in the power not being shut-off in sufficient time to prevent a fire, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a thermocouple with a faster response time for all refrigerators with a sensing algorithm or a thermal switch.
On certain motorhomes, the brake calipers may stick in the applied position. This can result in abnormal heat generation at the wheel end which, if undetected, could eventually lead to soft brake pedal condition due to brake fluid boil. Extended stopping distances may result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.
On certain motorhomes equipped with Workhorse Custom Chassis, the engine fuel rail pulse damper retainer clip may fracture, resulting in inadequate retention of the damper. If the damper comes loose, a fuel leak may result in the underhood area which may result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the engine fuel rail pulse damper retainer clip.
Certain motorhomes fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 101 and 105. Incorrect software programmed into the instrument panel cluster may not allow activation of certain driver warning indicators. As a result, the instrument cluster may fail to illuminate the warning lamps indicating brake system failure. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the instrument panel cluster.

On certain motorhomes, the roof vent for the optional 4-door refrigerator was incorrectly located allowing excessive heat build-up which has the potential to ignite surrounding materials, resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage. Correction: Dealers will relocate the refrigerator roof vent.
Certain motorhomes may have insufficient clearance in the area where the fuel line and frame cross member intersect. The cross member may wear into the fuel line and cause a leak which has the potential to ignite, resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage. Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel line for abrasion wear or damage, and pry the wiring support channel away from the line to provide additional clearance.
On certain vehicles, the seat belts do not meet the strength requirements of CMVSS 209. In the event of a crash, the seat belt buckle could release, leaving the occupant unrestrained, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the seat belt buckle assemblies.
