I have been in contact with Susan at Forest River because in the Phoenix area , some dealers do not do warranty work and a lot of dealers are no longer with Forest River. She found a dealer for me to contact that is north of the valley. The parts will start shipping july 9 according to her.

Got ours this past week.  Called RV-MAX and was told they already have a number of others and are ordering the kits.  BTW, Susan is the best!

Finally got our letter yesterday (July 6).  As Couch's is 1200 miles away, we were told that we could use any Forest River dealer for the recall.  In other words, we didn't have to use just an r.pod dealer.  Given that information, we've scheduled July 18th and will be happy to have it done.  Joe

Does anyone have a picture of the rear top light bar mounted?  I'm not sure I'd like the looks of a spoiler back there!

Note:  These are not my pics.  I snagged them from another thread either on this board or the other R-Pod board.  I forget whose they are, but thanked him/her for sharing.  I'm assuming they would not have an issue with them being reposted.

That being said, here's what the recall looks like after completion.

Thanks for posting the pictures!  The lights would certainly make the trailer more visible.  It looks like the wiring comes out the right side of the spoiler and runs down the edge, so maybe no holes in the roof are required. Smile
