Fleetwood Ent., Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Nov 1, 2001 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 118. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CERTAIN CLASS A MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." THE MOTOR HOMES WERE NOT EQUIPPED WITH RED REFLEX REFLECTORS ON THE REAR AND RED REFLEX REFLECTORS/SIDE MARKER LAMPS ON THE SIDE AS FAR TO THE REAR AS PRACTICABLE.
The risk
AT NIGHT, WITHOUT THIS REFLECTOR INSTALLED, THE APPROACHING DRIVER MAY NOT BE AWARE THAT THE VEHICLE IS AHEAD, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy
DEALERS WILL INSTALL THE REFLECTORS TO THE REAR AND SIDE OF THE MOTOR HOME. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN NOVEMBER 16, 2001. 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 1-800-322-8216.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 01V344000.
