Issue: On certain motorhomes, the hydraulic lines for the levelling system may be routed too close to the exhaust system. This could cause them to overheat and melt. If this happens, hydraulic oil could leak onto the exhaust system. Additionally, a heat shield was not installed over the exhaust system. Safety Risk: An oil leak onto a hot exhaust system could cause a fire. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the hydraulic lines for the levelling system. The lines will be rerouted as necessary and a heat shield will be installed.

Issue: On certain motorhomes, the dash blower motor does not have proper fuse protection. As a result, an electrical overload or short circuit could cause the wiring to overheat. Safety Risk: Wiring that overheats could create a risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorhome to a dealer to install a fuse for the dash blower. A 25 ampere fuse will be installed in position 23 in the power distribution box. Dealers will also install a label in the fuse box noting "Fuse Position 23 Max. 25 A".

69 units affected
Certain motorhomes may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 104 - Windshield Wiping and Washing System. The wiper system could fail as it does not stall or disengage during a heavy snow or ice scenario, contrary to the requirements of the standard. This could reduce the driver's visibility under certain conditions, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the wiper module with a new relay pack.
