Details

What's wrong: On certain motor homes equipped with busman boxes, the busman box location is face-up on the floor of its compartment.

Why it matters: This could allow water to enter into the box and could cause an electrical short, causing arcing, spontaneous engine start with no key or possible fire.

The fix: Dealers will relocate the busman box from the floor to the side of the compartment. All screw holes will be sealed. The recall began on November 1, 2006.
