What's wrong: Airstream, Inc. (Airstream) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Airstream Land Yacht, classic, Eddie Bauer, International, Flying Cloud, and sport travel trailers manufactured November 26, 2013, to August 14, 2014. The affected vehicles may have been built with power inlet receptacles that may not be properly tightened to the electrical connectors.

Why it matters: If the electrical connection is loose it could cause excessive heat, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire.

The fix: Airstream will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the receptacle for damage and tighten the electrical connectors, or replace the power inlet if necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 2, 2014.
