- The defect
- Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2019-2023 Entegra Launch, Launch LE, Qwest, Jayco Melbourne, Melbourne Prestige, Terrain, and Terrain LE motorhomes. The guide bushing on the parking pawl may fatigue, which can cause the parking pawl not to engage and result in a vehicle rollaway.
- What it can cause
- Vehicle rollaway increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will update the software of the electronic stability, transmission control, direct select module, and electronic ignition switch control units, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 8, 2023. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco's number for this recall is MB 22V-796.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup.

How this campaign compares
At 2,845 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 70% of the 16,597 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 480. It covers model years 2019 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Jayco vehicles have been recalled over the power train 3 times before this, most recently in October 2010 as 10V469000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 13 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V072000 (fuel system, diesel), 24V310000 (electrical system), 24V160000 (electrical system), 23V486000 (visibility).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Jayco, Inc. with NHTSA on February 16, 2023 as campaign 23V081000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
