Summary

Roadtrek Motorhomes Inc. "Roadtrek" is recalling certain model year 2014 CS Adventurous, E-Trek, RS Adventurous, SS Agile, and TS Adventurous vehicles manufactured from September 18, 2013, through April 9, 2015, and built on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Chassis. The affected vehicles have electrical wiring connections under the front seats that can become dislodged or damaged and prevent the optional front seat SH9 Thorax air bags from deploying.

Consequence

If the front thorax air bag fails to deploy in the event of a crash, the seat occupant has a increased risk of injury.

Remedy

Roadtrek will notify owners, and dealers will modify the electrical connections, free of charge. The recall began on August 20, 2015. Owners may contact Roadtrek customer service at 1-888-762-3873.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
