NHTSA recall 09V175000
Electrical System · FLEETWOOD ENTERPRISES, INC.
Details
What's wrong: The battery cable may become dislodged and come in contact with the driver shaft causing entanglement or abrasion to the battery cable.
Why it matters: This could lead to an electrical short which may result in a fire or un-commanded vehicle shutdown which may result in a loss of vehicle control.
The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace damage battery cables and secure the battery cable harness above the drive shaft free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during June 2009.
