Details

What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, an improper amount of insulation may be stripped from the 110v ac water heater ignition wires resulting in a poor connection of the wires.

Why it matters: A poor wiring connection could increase the wiring's resistance, causing excessive heat, resulting in an increased risk of fire.

The fix: Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the installation of the lp/electric water heater and repair it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 12, 2013.
