2013–2014 Roadtrek Rscm recall: brakes

⚠️ What's wrong

Roadtrek Motorhomes Inc. (Roadtrek) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 RSCM motorhomes manufactured February 14, 2013, through December 20, 2013 on a Mercedes Sprinter van chassis. During installation of the coolant lines, the right front brake line may have been unseated from the brake line holder allowing the brake line to contact the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) tube.

💥 The risk

Brake line contact with the EGR tube could result in a hole in the brake line, reducing braking ability and increasing the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Roadtrek will notify owners, and dealers will secure the coolant lines and inspect for unseated brakes lines. Brake lines that show evidence of chafing will be replaced. The recall began on January 30, 2014. Customers may contact Roadtrek at 1-888-762-3873.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
