The problem
Thor motor coach (tmc) is recalling certain model year 2008-2010 outlaw and model year 2011 avanti motor homes manufactured from august 2007, through november 2010. The stop lamps may be intermittent during light brake applications.
The risk
The stop lamps may not properly indicate that the service brakes are applied which may lead to a crash without warning.
The fix
Tmc will notify owners and repairs will be performed by damiler trucks (dtna) dealerships free of charge. (see dtna's recall campaign 10v-178.) notification to owners by dtna is expected to begin during may 2011. Owners may contact dtna at 1-800-547-0712.
