Foretravel recalls 2025–2027 Realm Presidential and 2025–2026 Realm motorcoaches over brake lights that stay on

The brake lights can stay on when the driver is not braking, which may keep other drivers from knowing what the motorcoach driver intends to do and raises the risk of a crash.

What to do

Foretravel will work with Shyft to replace the pressure switch for free. Owners can contact Foretravel customer service at 1-800-955-6226.
