    Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Seneca Class C motorhomes. The mounting brackets for the leveling system hydraulic pump and reservoir may fail, allowing the components to contact the ground.

    Contact with the ground may cause the pump and reservoir to detach or leak hydraulic fluids, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will install an updated support bracket. The recall began February 12, 2021. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco's number for this recall is 9903529.
