Transport Canada runs its own recall programme. Its campaigns do not always
mirror the American ones, so a Canadian owner reading a US-only list is
reading about a different car than the one on their driveway.

Structure
On certain motorhomes equipped with Lippert Components Inc. electric entry steps, an internal bolt on the steps that attaches the fan gear assembly to the steps could fracture. This results in the fan gear disengaging from the steps, which could cause the steps to stop in an unexpected position and appear to be loose or unstable. If the steps become unstable, it could cause a person to fall, resulting in injury. Correction: Dealers will install a step retainer bracket to reinforce the operating mechanism, and all bolts of the mechanism will also be replaced.

Seats And Restraints
On certain vehicles, the driver and passenger three-point shoulder harness seat belts may not have been installed properly. The seat pedestal brace which holds the seat belt harness in place was not installed on some of the affected motorhomes. In others, the seat pedestal brace was installed but the four tec bolts utilized to hold the brace in place were not. The presence of these defects may cause the seat belt to malfunction in the event of an accident, which could in turn result in injury or death to the occupants of the driver's seat or the passenger's seat. Correction: Dealers will inspect below the cockpit floor to determine if the motorhome is missing the tec bolts only or if both the seat pedestal brace and the tec bolts are missing. Dealer will affect repairs.
