NHTSA recall 07V022000
Exterior Lighting · Damon Corporation
Details
What's wrong: Certain motor homes fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 108, "lamps reflective devices, and associated equipment." These motor homes were built without the red rear reflex reflectors and some motor homes were built without the side rear red reflex reflectors.
Why it matters: During night driving conditions or while the motor home is parked, the rear and side marker lights will not provide any reflex reflection to mark the vehicle's location in the dark increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Damon will provide the owners with a kit containing the missing reflectors and instructions for applying them to their vehicle. Owners may choose to have their dealers do the repair free of charge. The recall began on July 9, 2007.
