Details

What's wrong: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2014-2017 Berkshire xl and XLT buses. The headlights may shut off while switching from low beam to high beam settings, reducing visibility for the operator and other vehicles.

Why it matters: If the headlights shut off while driving, decreasing or causing a full loss of visibility, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

The fix: Forest river will notify owners, and dealers will install a supplemental wiring harness that will stop the headlights from shutting off unexpectedly, free of charge. The recall began on October 31, 2017.
