Forest River Legacy recalls

• Wheels#2020446September 21, 2020

  51 units affected

  Issue: On certain motorhomes, the tire valve stem extension for the inner wheel may get damaged by contact with the outer wheel. If this happens, the inner tire could lose air pressure. This could overload the outer tire and cause it to fail. Safety Risk: A tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorhome to a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) authorized service facility to inspect and adjust the inner wheel valve stem stabilizers, as needed. The inner valve stems will be replaced, if required.

  76 units affected

  Issue: Certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner chassis could have a problem with the rear-mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM). This could cause the tail lights not to work properly. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2018-582. Vehicles that had an inspection, but did not have the PDM replaced under the previous recall, require a second repair under this recall. Safety Risk: Brake lights, marker lights or turn signals that do not work properly could make the vehicle less visible. They could also cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking or intends to turn. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Forest River will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) authorized service facility to replace the PDM..

• Seats And Restraints#2016001January 5, 2016

  13 units affected

  Certain motorhomes may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) 210 - Seat Belt Anchorages and (CMVSS) 209 - Seat Belt Assemblies. The fitment of the front driver and passenger shoulder belts are located too low on occupants' torsos. In the event of a crash, this condition may lead to potential injuries if the emergency locking mechanisms of the seat belt assembly are activated, which could increase the risk of occupant injury. Correction: Dealers will install a new seatbelt system and reposition the wall anchor locations for the driver and passenger sides of the vehicle. Dealers will also provide and replace the subject seatbelt(s) that fail to conform to the requirements of the CMVSS 209 standard.

• Structure#2015581December 7, 2015

  763 units affected

  On certain motorhomes equipped with Lippert Components Inc. electric entry steps, an internal bolt on the steps that attaches the fan gear assembly to the steps could fracture. This results in the fan gear disengaging from the steps, which could cause the steps to stop in an unexpected position and appear to be loose or unstable. If the steps become unstable, it could cause a person to fall, resulting in injury. Correction: Dealers will install a step retainer bracket to reinforce the operating mechanism, and all bolts of the mechanism will also be replaced.

  On certain travel trailers and motorhomes, a defect in the on-demand hot water heater, manufactured by Atwood Mobile Products, could result in a risk of scalding injury due to excessive hot water temperature. Correction: Owners will be provided with instructions from Atwood Mobile Products on how and where to have repairs completed.
