Details

What's wrong: Certain motor homes built on Chevrolet c3500 (Express) cutaway chassis have a towing pigtail that will not show brake lights on the towed vehicle if hooked to the towing pigtail.

Why it matters: This condition could result in a crash, injury or death.

The fix: Dealers will rewire the towing pigtail wires to include the brake light circuit free of charge. The recall began on October 31, 2005.
