NHTSA recall 18V078000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Jayco, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2017 Precept motorhomes. The brake hydraulic electronic control units (hecu) on these vehicles may be missing valve block ball plugs, potentially causing a brake fluid leak or air ingestion during electronic brake distribution and/or ABS activation.
Why it matters: A brake fluid leak or air ingestion can lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Jayco will notify owners, and Ford dealers will inspect the hydraulic block and replace the hecu if the ball plugs are present, free of charge. The recall began on February 16, 2018.
