2006–2008 Roadtrek RS Adventurous & 2006–2008 Roadtrek SS Agile recall: lights

⚠️ What's wrong

Roadtrek is recalling 335 my 2006-2008 SS Agile and RS Adventurous class "b" motor homes built on dodge and freightliner sprinter 2500 van chassis. These motor homes fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment." the rear hitch mounted spare tire carrier (continental spare tire kit), impedes the full visibility of the left tail light. The drivers of following vehicles may not have full visibility of the left tail lights.
