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 motorhomes, the cable for the transmission range indicator "PRND321" on the instrument cluster may be damaged by a sharp edge on the shift lever arm. If the indicator cable is cut, the indicator will remain in the "1" position (first gear) regardless of what gear is actually selected. With no gear indication, the operator may inadvertently select an incorrect gear, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Ford dealers will replace the transmission selector arm and indicator assembly.
