The issue
On certain motorhomes, the V-Bus Field-Effect Transistor (FET) control boards, part of the energy management system, may suffer from an unrecognized excessive current situation. This could create a shock hazard as well as a risk of fire, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will re-program the V-Bus lighting and control network.
Description (français)

Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reprogrammer l’unité V-bus.
