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 vehicles, the steering gear may have been assembled with an incorrect recirculating ball spacer which could allow the recirculating balls to escape from the ball circuit, resulting in a loss of steering. The operator may notice higher required steering wheel inputs, or the need for more steering wheel adjustments while driving in a straight line in combination with metallic cracking noises prior to a loss of steering. Loss of steering control could result in a vehicle crash causing injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the steering gear assembly.
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.
On certain motorhomes, a sheet metal tab on a wire cover could catch on the accelerator pedal, preventing the pedal from returning to the idle position. Personal injury and/or vehicle damage may result. Correction: Dealers will inspect the wire cover behind the accelerator pedal, and if required, reposition the wire cover tab.

On certain vehicles built on FCCC XC motorhome chassis, in a situation where multiple alarms are active, a Check Engine, Stop Engine, or similar warning indicator is given priority over the Low Air alarm by the instrument system controller software. If the operator does not acknowledge these higher priority alarms a Low Air alarm may not be displayed. This is a non-compliance with the low air warning requirements of CMVSS 121. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the Multi-Module Data Controller (MMDC).
