RV batteries (Go Power brand) went into standby mode. The following morning, after the RV was plugged into shore power (50-amp) all night, batteries did not charge leading to complete loss of brakes while tv was hooked to truck. Brinkley RV failed to identify issue or issue safety bulletin/recall to owners. Incident occurred in May 2024 in Indiana. Brinkley serviced the RV following the incident and could not provide an explanation or solution. RV was almost unstable in a safe time/distance due to loaded weight of 20,000 lbs at time of rv brake failure. No warnings inside truck indicated loss of trailer brakes. Brinkley and Camping World in Richmond, IN both verified truck was not the cause for brake system failure and that power was going to RV and brake system.
Service bulletins
Technical service bulletins and other communications the manufacturer sent dealers about this vehicle. Ask a dealer for the full document by its number.
- 11008976Brinkley RV has determined the bottom slide-out facia backer, in some cases, presses against the water tray below the slideout when the room is fully extended. This pressure can limit the water trays ability to dissipate the water as designed. Brinkley RV will, at no charge to the customer, pay to modify the bedroom slide-out facia backer so it no longer adversely affects flow through the water tray.
- 11007162Brinkley RV has determined that under certain conditions the decorative light lens covers may peel, allowing the possibility of water intrusion and damage to the LED light strips behind them. This is a supporting document to the previous informational submittal 24MC11003772.
- 11001574In some cases, the columns of the 3 Seasons Patio Door may have a small gap where the columns meet the ceiling. This work instruction explains how to obtain and install a 3 Seasons Patio Door Trim Plate Kit to provide additional protection from insects and debris entering the garage area of your Brinkley RV.
- 10249942The max current threshold in the X4 Control Board has the potential to de-activate the subject circuit pre-maturely. The X4 Control Board is the electronic module that controls many of the RVs systems (including awnings, leveling, slide-outs, lights, tank heaters, and others). The tank heater portion of the system is intended to cut out at 20Amp, but has been observed to cut out as low as 10-17A. In some instances, especially in colder conditions, it is possible that the tank heater circuit will shut off earlier than intended, and could potentially lead to the tank or icemaker line freezing. The remedy for this incorrect electrical setting is to install an in-line relay between the X4 board and the high current (HC) latch/tank pad and water line.
- 10249941On certain Model G Fifth Wheels, under certain conditions, the water supply line to the ice maker may pull loose (or out), creating a water leak. The remedy for this condition is to replace the water supply line to the ice maker to minimize chances of future water leaks.
- 10249427It has come to our attention that the polycarbonate plastic utilized to manufacture attic vents for the RV industry may be incompatible with the 5121 self-leveling roof sealant that we utilize. We have received reports of cracked attic vents in the field that we believe are the result of the sealant being more rigid than what is traditionally utilized. This additional rigidity does not permit the attic vent to expand and contract and can result in the attic vent cracking either along the location of the mounting screw holes and, in some cases, cracking vertically up the attic vent. Brinkley RV will pay for the Campaign to be completed. There is no charge to the customer for the remedy.
- 10248238The attached document describes the repair process for Model G Slim Rack Bedroom Slides in the event there is water intrusion at the lower corner cups of the slide pans. This document is a repair instruction and NOT a Customer Satisfaction Campaign. We have had a low number of complaints pertaining to slide water intrusion at the bedroom slides. This document is communicated to dealers or mobile service technicians that are called upon to correct the leak and is supplied on an as needed basis. The repair contemplated by the instructions was incorporated into the unit design starting with VIN ending in 000368. As such, this document should have limited applicability to VINs ending in 000003 to 000367 and only applies to those with the leak condition present.
- 10248091Communications were made to both dealers and retail customers concerning a missed seal behind the rear awning on Model G units. Dealers were both emailed and supplied with the communication via the Brinkley RV Dealer Portal. Retail Customers were notified via: 1) our Brinkley RV Model G Owners Facebook page, 2) email correspondence, and 3) in a letter sent regular mail.
