The contact owns a 2004 viking legend. While parked the contact attempted to raise the top of the camper, but it would not open. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostics.

Unknown or Other · reported Apr 28, 2011
While raising the roof of the pop-up camper, the lift cable broke and the roof fell. Fortunately no one was injured. I found a recall on my model and year for installing a safety brake to prevent the roof from falling if the cable breaks (Recall - campaign #05v364000). The company responsible for the recall says my camper is not included in the recall. Since the roof fell when the lift system failed I AM not sure why I cannot have my camper fixed. I cannot get a description from them explaining it to me.
