Forest River recalls 2020 Berkshire motorhomes with faulty rear lights that may cause crashes. Owners must get free PDM replacement by January 18, 2021.
Non-functioning exterior marker lights can increase the risk of a crash.
Forest River is recalling 2020 Berkshire motorhomes with potentially non-working rear lights that could increase crash risk. Owners must get a free replacement Power Distribution Module from a Daimler dealer.
The rear Power Distribution Module (PDM) may have been damaged during manufacturing, causing rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals to stop working. This increases crash risk because these lights are critical for vehicle visibility and signaling.
Owners of 2020 Forest River Berkshire motorhomes with specific chassis models built between 2017-2020 are affected. Drivers using these vehicles without functional rear lights face higher crash risk.
Check if your 2020 Berkshire motorhome was built on FCCC XB or XC chassis between 2017-2020. The recall covers models that received an inspection-only remedy for recall 18V-763.
Call 1-800-547-0712 to get the free PDM replacement from a Daimler dealer.
Forest Rivers will notify owners, and Daimler Trucks dealers will replace the old Power Distribution Module (PDM) with a new PDM, free of charge. The recall began January 18, 2021. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712 . Forest's number for this recall is 51-1203.
