Forest River, Holiday Rambler issue RV recalls

 

Forest River is recalling certain model year 2017 Dynamax Isata motorhomes, models ISC24FWM, ISC24RWM, ISC35DBD and ISC36DSD, manufactured May 19, 2016, to October 19, 2016. The affected vehicles may be missing a securing cable tie on the rubber grommet for the copper liquid propane (LP) gas line, allowing liquid propane to enter the cabin.

If the rubber grommet is not properly sealed and secured, there is an increased risk of propane leak and a fire.

Forest River will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the grommet and install a cable tie, as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 19, 2016. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-262-3474 extension 203. Forest River’s number for this recall is 55-10162016-0257.

REV Recreation Group (REV) has also issued a recall — for certain model year 2015-2016 Holiday Rambler Vacationer motorhomes. The affected vehicles have a front truss that may not be adequately supported at the attachment points, allowing any wire harnesses or hydraulic lines routed between the truss and its supporting framework to be pinched or crushed.

A damaged wire harness can cause an electrical short, resulting in intermittent operation of electrical systems or a vehicle shut down. A damaged hydraulic line may leak fluid. Either condition may increase risk of a fire or a crash.

REV will notify owners, and dealers will install additional steel to support the front truss. Dealers will also inspect the hydraulic hoses and electrical wiring, relocating them as necessary. These repairs will be done free of charge. The recall is expected to begin November 30, 2016. Owners may contact REV customer service at 1-800-509-3417. REV’s number for this recall is 161018REV.
