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.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Body & structureElectricalInterior & seats
Filed Jul 8, 2026

What component failed & is it available for inspection? Multiple critical safety systems failed, and the vehicle is available for inspection. Primary failures include the main entry door lock assembly and a complete electrical power failure to the LP propane safety leak detector. Secondary failures include malfunctioning front hood locks, a defective propane tank refueling sensor, and a cracked factory water heater weld. How was safety put at risk? The main entry door lock assembly failed mechanically, physically trapping occupants inside the living coach with no mechanical release and forcing an emergency window escape. This same door mechanism unlatched and swung completely open while transit on public highways, creating an extreme crash/ejection hazard. Additionally, the total electrical failure to the LP propane detector left occupants with zero protection or warning against toxic or explosive gas leaks. Has the problem been reproduced/confirmed by a dealer? Yes. All ongoing mechanical and structural failures have been thoroughly documented and confirmed across multiple repair visits by Camping World RV Sales. Furthermore, the electrical propane detector failure and structural roof compromises were explicitly reproduced and confirmed via an independent 45-point safety inspection. Has the vehicle or component been inspected…? Authorized dealer technicians have extensively inspected and documented these safety defects during multiple detentions totaling over 220 cumulative days out of service. The manufacturer (REV Group) has been formally served a legal demand letter regarding these structural and life-safety failures. Were there any warning lamps…? A chronic Chassis Check Engine Light first appeared in July 2023. However, the critical life-safety failures—the mechanical door lock trapping occupants/opening in transit and the complete power failure to the LP propane leak detector—occurred suddenly without any prior warning lamps or diagnostic symptoms.
