Details
What's wrong: On certain diesel pusher, and class a motorhomes, a bracket securing the tv in place in the front overhead cabinet above the driver may not support the weight of the tv.
Why it matters: The tv could become loose and fall out on the driver causing a loss of control of the vehicle and bodily injury.
The fix: Dealers will remove the tv from the front overhead cabinet and replace the installation brackets. Owner notification began July 31, 2002.
