Issue: On certain motorhomes, the bracket that secures the hydraulic pump for the leveling system could fail. If this happens, the pump could separate from the vehicle while driving. Safety Risk: A pump that detaches from the vehicle could create a hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to reinforce the bracket for the hydraulic pump.
On certain vehicles equipped with a Solera Smart Arm awning, the awning may open with no action from an operator. If this happens while the vehicle is in motion, the awning may detach, creating a potential road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the awning controller.
