2004 Prevost Xlii recalls
Recall 08V-007: Equipment
Problem: On certain motor coaches equipped with zf/arens astronic shift selectors, a cell phone placed in the proximity of the shifter touch pad could cause the display to change from 'r' (Reverse) to 'd' (Drive) should the phone receive a call.
Risk: This interference can cause the transmission to not operate or cause improper shifting, as forward gear can be engaged from neutral only, if the vehicle has been stopped, and if the brake pedal has been depressed. If the malfunction occurs while 'r' (Reverse) is being selected, the shifter may possibly change to 'd' (Drive), increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Prevost will mail stickers and installation instructions to their owners and will also arrange to have the transmission software upgraded. The recall began on february 13, 2008. Owners may contact prevost at 1-418-831-5432.
Recall 06V-214: Steering
Problem: On certain motor homes equipped with front independent suspension, two spindle shafts were improperly processed during manufacturing which weakened the shafts.
Risk: The shafts can break causing a loss of steering control increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Dealers will replace the two spindle shafts and surrounding parts free of charge. The recall began on october 12, 2006. Owners may contact prevost at 418-831-5432.
