What's wrong?
The power steering pressure line on these 2021-2022 Jayco Greyhawk, Redhawk, Esteem, Greyhawk Prestige, and Odyssey recreational vehicles carries pressurized steering fluid to the Hydroboost brake unit. That Hydroboost unit uses hydraulic pressure to help the brakes apply with less pedal effort. The connection has to stay tight so steering fluid stays in the system.
In included vehicles, the fitting between the pressure line and the Hydroboost unit was not adequately connected during assembly. If the fitting separates or leaks, power steering fluid escapes quickly. The repair replaces the steering lines with updated lines that use revised routing and a corrected connection angle at the Hydroboost unit.
What you notice can start outside the driver seat. Look for power steering fluid on the ground under the vehicle. If the fitting disconnects while driving, drivers have reported an audible "pop" before the leak becomes obvious.

The year, make, and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
A sudden loss of power steering fluid can remove power steering and power brake assist, increasing crash risk. If you see steering fluid under the vehicle or hear a pop while driving, pull over safely and call the dealer before continuing. Repair is free at any franchised Jayco dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2021-2022 Greyhawk, Redhawk, Esteem, Greyhawk Prestige, or Odyssey recreational vehicle is included in this Jayco recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Jayco dealer to schedule the free inspection and power-steering-line replacement that fixes the Hydroboost connection that can leak power steering fluid.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it, and reference recall number 22V290 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Leave extra following distance because loss of power steering fluid can reduce steering and brake assist.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Jayco technician inspects the connection between the power steering lines and the Hydroboost unit. If the inspection shows the lines are affected, the technician replaces the power steering lines. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. If you paid for this repair before the recall, Jayco's recall reimbursement plan covers eligible prior repairs. Keep repair invoices and proof of payment, then contact Jayco customer service or ask the service desk how to submit the claim.
