17V756000
EQUIPMENT
In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
16V472000
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL
A sudden loss of an engine brake without warning on a motorhome may lead to a reduced brake capacity, potentially increasing the risk of a crash.
16V330000
SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC
If the brake activation signal to a towed device remains active when the motorhome chassis service brakes are released, the brakes on a towed device may remain engaged. As a result, the brakes could drag and overheat potentially resulting in a fire. Additionally, following drivers may be confused by the motorhome's actions, increasing the risk of a crash.
15V771000
EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER:LPG SYSTEMS:WATER HEATER
The overheating of the water may result in the release of steam, possibly causing the operator is to scald themselves and increasing the risk of injury.
This page is about a model, not a car
Two 2014 FOREST RIVER CHARLESTONs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
