Issue: rnCertain motorhomes built on a Freightliner chassis could have a problem with the rear-mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM). This could cause the tail lights not to work properly. rnNote: This is an expansion of recall 2019-379. Vehicles that had an inspection, but did not have the PDM replaced under the previous recall, require a second repair under this recall.rn rnSafety Risk: rnBrake lights or turn signals that do not work could cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking or intends to turn. This could increase the risk of a crash.rn rnCorrective Actions: rnWinnebago will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) authorized service facility to replace the PDM.
