What's wrong?

The rear Power Distribution Module, or PDM, on 2016-2019 Fccc Xcm, Xcl, Xbs, Xcr, Xcs, and Xbr RV chassis is an electrical control box. It routes power to rear lighting circuits, including the rear marker lights, brake lights, and turn signals. Those lights tell drivers behind the RV when it is stopping, turning, or present in low visibility.

On affected chassis, the PDM circuit board was not seated correctly by a clamping fixture during a soldering operation. That manufacturing error damaged the board. Once installed, the damaged board can interrupt the rear lighting circuits, so the rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals stop working even though the driver is using them normally.

There is no warning sign before failure. The issue shows up as light output: someone outside the RV sees the rear lights fail to illuminate or signal when expected.

The 2016-2019 model years and chassis line narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific vehicle is included.

What's the safety risk?

Nonfunctioning lights make the vehicle harder for other drivers to see and increase the risk of a crash. Check exterior lights before each trip and schedule the repair soon if your VIN is included. Repair is free at any franchised Fccc dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2016-2019 Fccc Xcm, Xcl, Xbs, Xcr, Xcs, or Xbr chassis is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Fccc dealer to schedule the free recall repair for the rear Power Distribution Module issue that can stop rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals from working.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Fccc mailed one. If not, reference recall number 18V582 and Fccc recall FL788 when you call.
  4. Avoid driving after dark or in poor visibility until the repair is complete, and confirm the rear marker lights, brake lights, and turn signals work before each trip.
  5. Call Fccc customer service at 1-800-547-0712 with recall questions.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, an Fccc technician handles recall 18V582 for the rear mounted Power Distribution Module, the part tied to rear marker lights, brake lights, and turn signals. The dealer repair is available now, and parts and labor are covered under the recall. The source filing says the remedy was still being developed when the interim owner notice went out, so it does not name a specific replacement part or inspection step for the final repair. Ask the service desk to confirm the current Fccc repair procedure when you schedule.

Frequently asked questions

What is recall 18V582?

Recall 18V582 covers 12,311 2016-2019 Fccc Xcm, Xcl, Xbs, Xcr, Xcs, and Xbr recreation vehicle chassis. The rear mounted Power Distribution Module was damaged during manufacturing, which can leave rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals inoperative and increase crash risk.

What should I do if my 2016-2019 Fccc Xcm, Xcl, Xbs, Xcr, Xcs, or Xbr is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific chassis is included in recall 18V582. If it is, contact a franchised Fccc dealer or DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712 and reference recall FL788. The dealer recall remedy is free.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair this defect at no cost. Fccc owners do not pay for the dealer recall remedy tied to campaign 18V582, regardless of where the recreation vehicle was purchased.

What is the safety risk?

The safety risk is reduced rear lighting and signaling. If the rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals stop working, drivers behind the vehicle get less notice of braking, turning, or vehicle position, which can increase crash risk.

What if I bought this Fccc chassis used?

The free recall remedy still applies. Recall coverage follows the VIN, not the original owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific Fccc chassis is included, then reference recall 18V582 or DTNA recall FL788 when you contact the dealer.
