The short version
Forest River, Inc. reported a problem with the steering. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles are built on a Freightliner Custom Chassis and have steering boxes that were manufactured using incorrect internal spacers, resulting in premature wear in the connection between the steering wheel and the front axle.
The steering wheel's connection to the front axle could fail resulting in a sudden loss of steering ability, increasing the risk of a crash.
Forest River will notify owners, and Freightliner dealers will inspect and replace the steering box, as necessary, free of charge.
