Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles are equipped with certain lippert-brand coachstep double aelectric steps. These steps use a bolt to attach the fan gear assembly to the steps. This bolt may fracture allowing the fan gear to disengage from the steps. As a result, the steps may not remain in the expected position and may become unstable.

Why it matters: Unstable entry and exit steps increase the risk of injury.

The fix: Entegra will notify owners, and dealers will install a retainer bracket on the double step assemblies. On the trip step assemblies, the coachstep linkage assembly will be replaced and a retainer bracket will be installed. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
