Why does my Buzz Rack (bike rack) say you can't use it on a motorhome?

It's a Eazzy 4, but I think they say this about all their models.

I don't want to use it if it's going to be dangerous, but I can't think of any good reason why they might say this. Perhaps that I'd not notice if it was coming off?

Thanks!

Many vans have extension pieces at the rear of the chassis.
While these extensions may be suitable for a towbar (not all are) they aren't designed for the kind of downloads applied with a bike rack, especially a 4 bike rack

I've edited the subject line!

Argh! That's bad news. Yes, my towbar is bolted to the chassis via extension pieces. Pretty sure I read in some old documentation that it was added to carry a motorbike, so maybe I have a receipt somewhere that might help me out...
