The issue
Certain travel trailers may have been assembled with an incorrectly sized grounding wire. This could cause the wire to overheat and melt potentially increasing the risk of fire, causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a bigger grounding wire.
Description (français)
Certaines caravanes classiques pourraient avoir été assemblées avec un câble de mise à la masse du mauvais calibre. Cela pourrait causer la surchauffe et la fonte de ce câble, ce qui pourrait augmenter les risques de déclenchement d'un feu pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront installer un câble de mise à la masse de plus gros calibre.
