What Happened
Rossmonster Vans LLC (Rossmonster) has issued a recall for certain motorhomes due to a defect in the service brake system. The affected vehicles are equipped with Carli extended stainless steel front brake lines that may have been incorrectly routed during manufacturing. This improper routing allows the brake line to come into contact with the front tire, which can damage the lines and lead to a brake fluid leak.
Which Products Are Affected
The recall affects approximately 117 units in total. Specific models include:
- Make/Model: Rossmonster Baja (Baja Ex and Baja LX variants)
- Model Years: 2023, 2024, and 2025
- Component: Carli extended stainless steel front brake lines
- NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V100000
What You Should Do
Owners of the affected vehicles are advised to contact Rossmonster customer service to arrange for a free inspection. Dealers will inspect the brake lines and reroute them as necessary to prevent contact with the tires at no cost to the owner. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed in February 2026. Consumers may contact Rossmonster customer service directly at 1-720-295-0623.
Why This Matters
A brake fluid leak resulting from damaged lines can significantly decrease braking performance. This reduction in stopping power increases the risk of a vehicle crash.
