On certain motorhomes, the bracket which secures the power steering gear to the chassis may develop cracks. This could allow the steering gear to partially detach from the chassis, which could result in a loss of steering control and a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Since Fleetwood Enterprises Inc (the manufacturer of these vehicles) is no longer in business, Spartan Motor Chassis, Inc. is supplying vehicle owners with this courtesy notice. Owners are advised to contact Spartan at 800-393-8861, to locate an authorized repair facility. The remedy consists of inspecting and, as necessary, replacing the steering gear mounting bracket, or installing a support bracket.
Certain motorhomes equipped with a Bussmann Dual Vehicle Electrical Center (DVEC) may experience an electrical power loss at major chassis operating systems (Engine, Transmission, Starting, Cooling). This could cause the vehicle to shut down and/or prevent powering up. Engine stalling would result in lost propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the DVEC assembly.
On certain motorhomes, conventional travel trailers and fifth wheel travel trailers equipped with a Dometic Corporation refrigerator, a fatigue crack can develop in the boiler tube. This could allow the release of pressurized coolant solution into an area where an ignition source is present, which could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will install a secondary burner housing.
On certain motorhomes, the service compartment that contains the inverter and house batteries is insufficiently sealed from spark producing devices. In the event out gassing occurs from the batteries and the gases are exposed to a spark, ignition of the gasses may occur. This has the potential to ignite combustible objects within the compartment, resulting in a vehicle fire. Correction: Dealers will install a compartment spacer and bulb seal.

On certain motorhomes, the ABS module may not have been permanently mounted during vehicle assembly. The module may still be temporarily secured to the wiring and hoses along the inside of the chassis rail. Should the module become detached from the vehicle, the ABS feature of the braking system may be lost. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, permanently mount the ABS module to the chassis rail.
