The entry step to the motorhome lacks sufficient support and may become damaged by repeated use.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: The step may collapse during use potentially causing personal injury.

Remedy: Fleetwood RV will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, reinforce the step structural support. The safety recall began during December 2012. Owners may contact Fleetwood RV Owner Relations at 1-800-509-3418.
