NHTSA recall 02V012000
Equipment · Coachmen RV Company, LLC
Details
What's wrong: On certain rear diesel motor homes equipped with optional gas generators, the generator fuel fill gas cap provided with the unit may not completely seal against the rim of the fill tube.
Why it matters: This could allow any gas that is splashed against the cap during vehicle operation, sudden stops, or turns, or a crash, to leak out. If gas is allowed to leak out through the unsealed cap/fill connection, the potential for a fire exists.
The fix: Dealers will replace the generator fuel fill tube and cap assembly. Owner notification began January 23, 2002.
