Jayco recall: Service brakes, hydraulic
What is wrong
Jayco is recalling certain model year 2010 insignia motor homes built on freightliner chassis manufactured between october 14, 2009 and january 15, 2010 with kongsberg power products systems adjustable brake pedals. The drive pin which secures the brake pedal arm to the balance of the assembly may become disengaged, this may cause a reduction in vehicle braking and/or cause the brake pedal to move out of position and interfere with throttle pedal function.
What could happen
A reduction in braking or interference with the throttle pedal could result in a vehicle crash.
The fix
Units are in dealers stock and none have been retail sold. Therefore, owner letters to customers will not take place. Dealers will receive kits and will inspect and install a c-clamp on the adjustable brake pedal. Jayco may be reached at 1-800-283-8267.
