On certain vehicles, the bedroom slide-out switch is very sensitive and can be activated by swinging garments while the vehicle is in motion. This can create a significant road hazard and a possible vehicle crash. Correction: A disconnect switch will be installed which will make it possible to isolate the slide switch when not in use.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 1998214.
