Summary
On certain motor homes built on prevost chassis and equipped with slide-out rooms, the microprocessor that controls the slide-out operation generates a false situation which tells the slide-out mechanism to operate. When this happens, a section of the motor home extends out by up to 30 inches.
Consequence
This can occur while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will add an external protection controlled by a manual command. In addition, an instruction describing how to deactivate the slide-out motor will be included in the notice to customers. This will eliminate the risk before the remedy is performed. Prevost is handling the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact prevost at 1-418-831-5432 or country coach at 1-800-547-8015.
Notes
Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).

Vehicles covered

As listed by NHTSA. A recall usually covers only some vehicles of each model and year, often a production date range.

Has your Country Coach been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Country Coach dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
