Details

What's wrong: On certain class a motor homes, the service compartment that contains the inverter and the house batteries is insufficiently sealed from spark producing devices. In the event out gassing occurs from the batteries and the gases are exposed to a spark of measurable size and duration, ignition of the gasses may occur.

Why it matters: This has the potential to ignite combustible objects within the compartment.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and install a compartment spacer and bulb seal to the service compartment that contains the house batteries free of charge. The recall began on March 30, 2007.
