Issue: On certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner XBR chassis, a power steering hose may touch the power stud on the starter motor. This could cause a short circuit and may also cause a power steering fluid leak. This may result in loss of power steering assist. Safety Risk: A power steering fluid leak in the presence of an electrical arc could create the risk of a fire. Additionally, a sudden loss of power assist could make the vehicle difficult to steer and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a DTNA authorized service facility to reroute the power steering hose to ensure it has proper clearance.
On certain motorhomes, the liner which seals the bottom, sides and back of the propane cooking range may have been omitted during vehicle assembly. As a result, airflow can extinguish the flame. If the range flame goes out, the propane gas will continue to flow. In the presence of an ignition source, this could result in a fire or an explosion, which could cause property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a cooking range liner/enclosure.
On certain vehicles, the connector for the brake and cruise control signal diode jumper assembly may come loose, resulting in a possible intermittent or continuously open circuit. Two circuits are potentially affected. One circuit disengages the cruise control with brake pedal application, and the other circuit illuminates the brake lights with brake application. Failure of the cruise control to disengage, or of the brake lights to illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed, could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will verify that the locking tabs on the diode jumper assembly connector are fully engaged and locked into place.
