The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V826000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger's side hood mounting bracket detached. The contact re-glued the hood mounting bracket. The dealer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but confirmed that parts were not yet available. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000.

The epoxy that attaches the hood brackets and the grill to the body is failing. Both hood brackets have come loose, the bracket on the passenger side came loose and fell off of the motorhome on the road and the driver side bracket came off and I noticed it before it fell completely off. Two of the grill brackets are now loose also.

When the vehicle gets in rough road or windy conditions the “service advance trac” message comes on dash board along with “hillside driver assist disabled” and the cruise control stops working. This has happen on two trips. About 5000 and 8000 miles

Every time after driving the vehicle from 5 to 10 miles get a “Service AdvanceTrac” message on console followed by “Hillside Driver Assist Disabled” and the cruise control is disabled.
