NHTSA recall 13V037000
Electrical System · Forest River, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: It may be possible to remove the key from the ignition when the vehicle is running or the transmission is not in the park position. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 114, "theft protection."
