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 entry door on my Jayco 264BH has become extremely difficult to open and close because the bottom of the door is rubbing against or making contact with the frame. This makes it nearly impossible for children to enter or exit the RV safely. In addition, closing the door from inside the RV is very difficult, which poses a significant safety risk—especially in emergency situations where quick exit may be necessary. This defect could prevent occupants, including children, from exiting the vehicle quickly and safely.

174BH-rear emergency latch is not secure when opened it can easily become ajar and may strike child in the eye causing damage. Small bumps in to the handle cause the window to shut and the handle to move back into the sleeping quarters. Further in the event a child needed to escape the window one must hold the window up. A child would not be able to hold the window up causing a safety issue.
