What was wrong

Defect

Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain model year 2016 Alante and Precept motorhomes manufactured August 10, 2015, to March 15, 2016. The wiring for the entrance steps may be incorrectly installed, and as a result, the steps may unexpectedly retract.

Risk

If the steps retract on their own, a person trying to enter or exit the motorhome may fall, increasing their risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the entrance step wiring, correcting the wiring as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on January 18, 2017. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-517-9137. Jayco's number for this recall is 9903340.
