NHTSA's recall notice

Defect description
Triple E Recreational Vehicles (Triple E) is recalling certain model year 2014 Libero motorhomes, model L24CB, manufactured November 2013 through February 2014, and model year 2014 Serenity motorhomes, model S24CB, manufactured September 2013 through February 2014.
