I received a recall,the federal safety agency # 07v‑456, related to my 2006 national rv on 11-9-07. I contacted the selling dealer & was informed the company was no longer in business, and that parts to repair the recall were un-available. This recall has to do with the lighting on the vehicle, and we are concerned about operating it. We have an awful large investment in this unit that has now became a very expensive lawn ornament. Please "help". Thank you.
