What this recall means for you
Certain Bayside motorhomes may have a rearview camera, or 360-degree view camera where equipped, that fails to display an image when the vehicle is placed in reverse. Without the camera image, the driver's view of what is behind the motorhome is reduced, which increases the risk of a crash while backing up.
If you own an affected motorhome, the remedy is free. An authorized dealer will replace the rearview camera and update the software and wiring as needed. Owners were mailed an interim notification in November 2023, and a second notice will be sent once the remedy parts are available, which is expected in the second quarter of 2024. You can contact Chinook customer service at 1-574-584-3756, and check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls.
