2023 Jayco Alante and Related Motorhomes Recalled for Instrument Panel Corrosion

Jayco is recalling 2023-2024 motorhomes where corrosion in an electrical connector can disable the instrument panel, preventing display of the speedometer and warning lights.

What this means for you

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

Our severity reasoning: This recall involves a safety-critical vehicle defect affecting the electrical system's instrument panel, which displays essential driving information like speedometer and warning lights. However, no injuries, deaths, or property damage have been reported, and the hazard remains theoretical, placing this at High severity rather than Severe.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2023 and 2024 motorhomes, including the Jayco Alante, Precept, Precept Prestige, and Entegra Emblem, Vision, and Vision XL models. Approximately 134 vehicles are potentially affected.

Corrosion in the Smart Data Link Connector (SDLC) in the electrical system can interfere with the vehicle's Controller Area Network (CAN) communication, which may render the instrument panel inoperative. An inoperative instrument panel cannot display critical safety information, including the speedometer and warning lights, increasing the risk of a crash.

Owners should contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 to arrange a remedy. Ford dealers will install a wire harness connector and inspect and replace the SDLC module as necessary, free of charge. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
