Problem: Thor motor coach (tmc) is recalling certain model year 2010 and 2011 damon tuscany, astoria, and essence recreational vehicles and model year 2011 and 2012 tmc tuscany and astoria recreational vehicles manufactured from may 7, 2009, through august 12, 2011. the circuit breaker for the windshield wiper motor is insufficient for the load. the breaker should have a 15 amp rating, however the vehicle was built with one rated at 10 amps.
Risk: The windshield wiper will stop operating if the breaker trips due to a circuit overload. if this occurs, the driver's field of vision may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Tmc will notify owners, and dealers will exchange the breaker with a 15-amp one, free of charge. the safety recall began on september 6, 2011. owners may contact tmc warranty/service department at 1-877-855-2867.
