What's wrong: An inadvertent deviation in ground cable sizing occurred resulting in wire gauge undersizing.

Why it matters: Undersized electrical conductors may result in conductor failure, creating a shock or fire hazard without warning.

The fix: Newmar will notify owners and provide a free remedy. The safety recall is expected to begin during August 2009.
