Fleetwood Pace Arrow Vision problems & recalls

Problem: Certain motor home chassis fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 105, "hydraulic and electric brake systems." the brake system warning indicator may not function as required by standard.

Risk: In some of the affected vehicles, the brake system warning indicator will not illuminate when the ignition is in the start position or for a low brake fluid condition, if the body builder relied solely upon ford's ivm compliance statement for the brake system warning indicator.

Fix: Dealers will repair these vehicles. owner notification began april 7, 2003. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact fleetwood at 1-800-445-3307.

Problem: The electric wire used to power the expandable room hydraulic pump motor was not equipped with a circuit breaker. overheating of the wire can occur with incorrect expandable room operation.

Risk: This condition can cause the wire insulation to melt, causing smoke and possible fire.

Fix: Dealers will install a circuit breaker to the expandable room system pump motor wire. fleetwood will also provide a vehicle label to identify the location of the circuit breaker, and will provide owner's manual literature to identify the circuit breaker location.
