The problem
Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2011 and 2013 Jay Series BB, BC and BD camping trailers equipped with a Lippert Power Roof Lift Mechanism. The manual over-ride feature on these power lifts may be misused, potentially resulting in torque from the drive motor damaging the lift mechanism.
The risk
Damage to the lift mechanism may cause the roof to fall unexpectedly, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Jayco will notify owners and will provide a warning label to instruct owners of the proper use of the manual over-ride feature, free of charge. The recall began on June 26, 2018. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-517-9137. Jayco's number for this recall is 9901379.
