Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

Chinook Motor Coach, LLC is recalling certain 2022-2024 Bayside motorhomes. The recall addresses a defect where the rearview camera, or the 360-degree view camera if equipped, may not display a rearview image when the vehicle is placed in reverse.

The loss of the rearview camera image can reduce the driver's rear visibility, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Ford dealers will replace the rearview camera and update the software and wiring as necessary, free of charge. Interim owner notifications explaining the safety risk were mailed on November 22, 2023. A second notice will be sent once remedy parts become available, which is anticipated for the second quarter of 2024. Owners may contact Chinook customer service at 1-574-584-3756 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
