Recall 19V294 affects 14 2019 Dynamax Isata motorhomes for brake hose ferrules without anti-corrosion plating. Repair is free at any franchised Dynamax dealer.
Dynamax is recalling 14 2019 Isata motorhomes because brake hose ferrules between the master cylinder and hydraulic control unit were built without anti-corrosion plating. If those ferrules corrode, brake fluid can leak and cause loss of braking, increasing crash risk; the dealer repair will be free once Dynamax makes it available.

What's wrong?
The 2019 Dynamax Isata uses hydraulic brake lines to move brake fluid from the master cylinder to the hydraulic control unit. The master cylinder creates pressure when you press the pedal, and the hydraulic control unit helps manage that pressure for braking and stability functions. The ferrules are the metal collars at the hose ends that hold the brake tube assembly secure.
On affected Isata motorhomes, the primary and secondary brake hose ferrules were built without anti-corrosion plating. That plating is supposed to protect the metal from rust and road exposure. Without it, corrosion can form on the ferrules and damage the brake hose connection over time.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner should not expect a dashboard light, noise, or pedal change before the brake hose hardware has already deteriorated.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
Corroded brake hose ferrules can let brake fluid leak, leading to a loss of braking and a higher crash risk. No warning sign is listed before failure, so check your VIN and arrange service if this recall applies. Repair will be free at any franchised Dynamax dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2019 Dynamax Isata is included in this recall.
- Wait for Dynamax's owner notice before scheduling service if you have not received repair instructions.
- Contact Dynamax customer service at 1-800-853-1403 with questions and reference recall number 19V294 when you call.
- Schedule the free brake-hose inspection and replacement once instructions are available; the repair addresses brake hoses that lack anti-corrosion plating and can leak brake fluid.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Leave extra following distance and stop driving if the brake pedal feels soft or brake fluid leaks.
What happens at the repair
The final dealer repair is still listed as under development. Once it opens, a Dynamax technician will inspect the primary and secondary brake hoses between the brake master cylinder and hydraulic control unit, then replace the hoses if needed. Parts and labor will be free under the recall. If you already paid out of pocket for this brake hose repair before the recall notice, Dynamax uses a general reimbursement plan on file. Ask customer service how to submit repair paperwork for review.

The primary and secondary brake hose ferrules were built without anti-corrosion plating, which can lead to corrosion, brake fluid leakage, and loss of braking. Dealers will inspect the hoses and replace them if needed for free.
What should I do if my 2019 Dynamax Isata is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific motorhome is included in recall 19V294. If it is, contact the dealer to schedule inspection of the primary and secondary brake hoses. Reference recall number 19V294 when you call. The inspection and needed replacement are free.

What is the safety risk?
The safety risk is loss of braking. If the brake hose ferrules corrode, brake fluid can leak from the hydraulic brake system, reducing braking ability and increasing crash risk. If you see brake fluid or feel reduced braking, stop driving and call the dealer for guidance.
