Safety risk
IF A DIRECT SHORT WERE TO OCCUR, THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR A FIRE.
Manufacturer remedy
DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE MOTOR HOMES TO DETERMINE IF THE SUBJECT WIRES ARE PROPERLY PROTECTED. IF THEY ARE NOT, PROPER PROTECTION WILL BE ADDED, AND IF NECESSARY, THE WIRING WILL BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED.
THE SCREWS USED TO MOUNT THE TELEVISION INTO AN OVERHEAD CABINET ARE NOT LONG ENOUGH TO PROPERLY SECURE THE TELEVISION TO THE ENCLOSURE BASE. THIS CAN CAUSE THE TELEVISION TO FALL OUT OF THE CABINET AND ONTO THE HEAD OF THE VEHICLE OPERATOR.
Safety risk
THE OPERATOR CAN SUSTAIN INJURIES AND POSSIBLY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.
Manufacturer remedy
DEALERS WILL REMOUNT THE TELEVISIONS WITH CORRECT FASTENERS.
Owner complaints
A complaint is one person's report to a federal agency. It is not a finding.
The 1993 model has about 1.5 times as many complaints as this one. The 1995 model has about half as many complaints as this one. These figures reflect raw complaint counts, not failure rates. Higher-selling model years naturally receive more complaints.
Safety recall repairs are provided free of charge by franchised dealers, regardless of vehicle age or mileage. This page displays aggregated data for the model year. To check recall status for a specific vehicle, search its VIN at nhtsa.gov.
