Electrical System · Coachmen RV Company, LLC
Details
What's wrong: On certain motor homes built on workhorse chassis, fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) no. 101, "controls and display" and standard no. 105 "hydraulic and electric brake systems." Models with actia instrument cluster, the incorrect software programmed into the cluster such that certain warnings are not displayed.
Why it matters: Incorrect software may not have the ability to illuminate warning lamps indicating brake system failures. The standards require driver warning when brake failure codes are set.
The fix: Workhorse is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign.
