Based on NHTSA recall #18V243000 (https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=18V243000).

Why it’s dangerous

These motorhomes do not have intermediate side marker lights, causing front and rear lights to be spaced more than thirty feet apart. This reduces visibility to other drivers and increases the risk of a crash.

How to tell if you have this one

Check if your motorhome has models 6314, 6316, 6317, 6320, 63111, 5291, or 5316 from 2016-2018. The vehicle must lack intermediate side marker lights and have front/rear lights spaced more than thirty feet apart.
