EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER

Published January 5, 2016 · Recall initiated: January 5, 2016

What's the hazard

Foretravel, Inc. (Foretravel) is recalling certain model year 2008 Nimbus motorhomes manufactured July 9, 2007, to March 25, 2008. The affected vehicles are equipped with certain Lippert-brand Coachstep Double Electric 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 be unstable.

What to do

Foretravel will notify owners and dealers will install a retainer bracket to reinforce the operating mechanism, free of charge. The recall began on February 20, 2016. Owners may contact Foretravel customer service at 1-936-564-8367, or Lippert customer service at 1-574-537-8900.
