Just Forest River? All the other builders are probably scrambling to ensure they are complying with the requirements.
What I wonder is where does the final builders requirements end and the chassis builder's start concerning recalls and such? The DP's must be a night mare. Final builder, chassis by a second, engine by someone else with a transmission by someone else,,,. Where does the buck stop?
Consumer vehicles (cars and light trucks) are simple, the final builder be it GM, Ford, Toyota and such is responsible regardless if the vehicle has a part that was built by someone else. RV's should be the same, the final builder such as Forest River, Thor, Tiffin, Newmar, whoever is responsible for the completed product support. We buy a complete product and write a check to them not one to Forest River, then Ford, Coleman, Norcold, Thetford, Carefree, Sony, Winegard, Dometic, Suburban. Did I miss a supplier?
Did you miss a supplier? YES, about 200 or 300. FR is the only one having this problem. All other OEM's comply. Doug
