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.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2021 recreational vehicles—specifically the Alante, Vision, Vision XL, Precept, Precept Prestige models, and the Entegra Emblem—that are equipped with a Power Bedlift System. Approximately 165 vehicles are affected.

The bedlift motor may fail due to internal gear failure. When this occurs, the overhead bunk bed can release from its stowed position. If the bed releases while the vehicle is moving, it could strike the driver or block their line of sight, increasing the risk of a crash and potential injury.

Owners will be notified by Jayco. Dealers will replace the bed motor free of charge. The recall began November 18, 2020. Owners can contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-517-9137 or NHTSA's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) for more information.
