The short version

Forest River, Inc. reported a problem with the driveline driveshaft. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

In the affected vehicles, the flexible coupling connecting the transmission to the driveshaft may prematurely fail.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the coupling fails, the vehicle will not be able to move under its own power and the disconnected driveshaft may impact and damage the brake and fuel lines. Additionally, the separated driveshaft may allow the vehicle to roll if the vehicle is exited when the transmission is in 'Park' but the parking brake is not applied.

WHAT TO DO

Forest River will notify owners, and as an interim repair, Ford dealers will replace the flexible coupling on any vehicle with more than 30,000 miles, free of charge.
