• Recall 2012088 [Canada]: Other
  On certain motorhomes, the cable for the transmission range indicator "prnd321" on the instrument cluster may be damaged by a sharp edge on the shift lever arm. If the indicator cable is cut, the indicator will remain in the "1" position (first gear) regardless of what gear is actually selected. With no gear indication, the operator may inadvertently select an incorrect gear, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: ford dealers will replace the transmission selector arm and indicator assembly.

• Recall 2013160 [Canada]: Label
  On certain motorhomes, the compliance label does not contain correct tire information. The label incorrectly indicates 245/70r19.5f tires with 655 kpa (95 psi) tire pressure and 19.5 x 6.75 rims, instead of 235/80r22.5g tires with 620 kpa (90 psi) tire pressure and 22.5 x 7.50 rims. As a result, the tires may be under-inflated, or the vehicle may inadvertently be fitted with incorrect replacement tires and wheels. Overloaded tires may lead to poor vehicle handling characteristics, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles, along with instructions for proper installation.
