Recall 2005196

The issue

On certain motorhomes, a change in materials used to fabricate the 50 amp transfer switches has resulted in lugs that do not retain the torque of the screw that clamps the wire connector. When torque is relaxed, the lugs can become loose, causing excessive heat within the connected wire, which may result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the transfer switches.

Description (français)

Sur certaines autocaravanes, le commutateur de transfert de 50 ampères a été fabriqué d'un matériau trop malléable qui empêche les languettes du commutateur de bien retenir les vis de montage du connecteur. Si les vis se desserrent, les languettes peuvent prendre du jeu, ce qui peut faire surchauffer le connecteur et causer un incendie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les commutateurs de transfert.
