What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (fuel tank corrosion) that creates a risk of fire, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe rating involving significant injury or property damage risks.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2022 Esteem, Odyssey, Redhawk, and Greyhawk motorhomes built on Ford chassis. The recall addresses a defect in the fuel tank assembly where paint along the weld seam may peel. This peeling can lead to corrosion of the exposed metal, which may result in a fuel leak.

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire. No specific number of affected units is provided in the source text, but the recall covers the 2022 model year for the listed Jayco and Entegra models.

Ford dealers will inspect the fuel tank and replace it if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 31, 2023. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
