Details

What's wrong: Fasteners that attach the solar panel may become loose during normal use.

Why it matters: A loose solar panel may separate from the vehicle during travel. This may cause personal injury and/or a road hazard to other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Fleetwood will notify owners, and dealers will install new locking nuts to secure the solar panel, free of charge. The recall began on June 13, 2013.
