Issue: On certain motorhomes, the propane (LP) line may not be properly secured near the rear wheels. As a result, the line could move and become damaged by contact with the tires. This could create a propane leak. Safety Risk: A propane gas leak can create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to secure the propane line. The dealer will also inspect the propane line for damage and replace it, if necessary.
Issue: On a small number of motorhomes, the bolts that attach the brake rotor to the rear wheel-hub may not have been tightened correctly. As result, the brake rotor could slip and fracture. If this happens, a wheel could separate from the vehicle. Note: This problem may cause the ABS warning lamp to turn on, and a vibration while braking. Safety Risk: A wheel separation could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. A wheel that separates could also hit another person or vehicle. Corrective Actions: None of the affected motorhomes have been delivered to customers. The corrective actions for this recall are under development. Each vehicle will be repaired before delivery.
Issue: On certain RV trailers and motorhomes, the fabric for the patio awning may not be properly attached. As a result, the awning could detach and fall from the vehicle. Safety Risk: An awning that falls from the vehicle could create a risk of injury. An awning that falls from a moving vehicle could create road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the fabric roll on the awning. It will be repaired or replaced, as necessary.
