Details

What's wrong: Certain motor home chassis fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 105, "hydraulic and electric brake systems." The brake system warning indicator may not function as required by standard.

Why it matters: In some of the affected vehicles, the brake system warning indicator will not illuminate when the ignition is in the start position or for a low brake fluid condition, if the body builder relied solely upon Ford's ivm compliance statement for the brake system warning indicator.

The fix: Dealers will repair the brake warning lamp circuit. Owner notification is began May 12, 2003.
