Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

The defect: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Entegra Launch, Qwest, Jayco Melbourne, and Melbourne Prestige motorhomes. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) blower motor circuit may be inadequate, which can allow the wiring harness to overheat.

Filed Aug 31, 2026

I am reporting a severe, repeating, and life-threatening safety defect involving the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis on my 2020 Entegra Qwest motorhome. The vehicle intermittently and without warning drops into "limp mode" while traveling at highway speeds. When this occurs, the vehicle suffers a sudden, drastic loss of propulsion, forcing the motorhome down to dangerously low speeds on active, high-speed roadways. This defect has created imminent near-crash conditions on multiple occasions, exposing my family and surrounding drivers to extreme danger. The vehicle has been taken to an authorized repair facility five separate times for this exact issue. The mechanics have been completely unable to diagnose or permanently repair the root cause of this failure, and the vehicle remains inherently dangerous to operate. We’ve asked Mercedes to buy it back or pay it off and they tell us too bad so sad can’t help you but they also said on the last invoice that they can’t fix it. I’m not sure what date to put below here on the additional details because it happened five times so I’ll show the last incident.
