On certain fifth wheel trailers the rear stabilizing jacks may extend while driving due to exposed wiring. If the exposed wiring is subject to road spray, it may activate the remote control panel and extend the jacks. This situation could result in a loss of control leading to a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a relay to prevent the activation autonomously in the presence of moisture.
