What's wrong?
The adjustable brake pedal assembly on the 2008 Coachmen Sportscoach Legend lets the brake pedal position move to fit the driver while still keeping the pedal arm connected to the braking linkage. A drive pin holds that pedal arm to the rest of the assembly. When you press the pedal, that connection transfers your foot pressure into the brake system.
On motorhomes covered by recall 10V013, the drive pin can work out of position and disengage. Once that pin is no longer holding the pedal arm correctly, the pedal does not stay aligned with the rest of the brake assembly. That can reduce braking force, and the pedal can also move out of position far enough to interfere with the throttle pedal.
There is no warning sign before failure. If the pin disengages, the first thing an owner notices is the brake pedal moving wrong or braking response changing when the vehicle is already being used.

What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2008 Coachmen Sportscoach Legend is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Coachmen dealer and ask for the free adjustable brake pedal inspection and C-clamp installation that secures the brake pedal assembly.
- Reference recall number 10V013 when you call the dealer.
- Bring the recall notice if Coachmen mailed one, or give the dealer your VIN and recall number at check-in.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Leave extra stopping distance and stop driving if the brake pedal moves out of position.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Coachmen technician inspects the adjustable brake pedal and installs a C-clamp on the pedal assembly using the recall kit. The clamp is meant to secure the adjustable brake pedal hardware so the pedal arm stays in position. The filing does not list this as an available remedy, so the dealer repair should be treated as free once available. Parts and labor are covered under the recall.
