The issue
Issue: On certain RV trailers, the circuit board for the LED light rings on the cooktop knobs could fail. As a result, the wiring and/or LED lights could overheat and melt. Note: This recall only affects RV trailers equipped with certain Suburban cooktops. Safety Risk: Wiring and/or lights that overheat and melt can create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Heartland will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your trailer to a dealership to disable or remove the LED light rings. To reduce the safety risk, Heartland recommends that you should disconnect the power for your trailer when it's not used.
Description (français)
Problème : Sur certaines caravanes, la carte de circuits imprimés pour les anneaux d'éclairage DEL sur les boutons de la plaque de cuisson pourrait faire défaut. Par conséquent, le câblage et/ou les anneaux d'éclairage DEL pourraient surchauffer et fondre. Remarque : Ce rappel concerne seulement les caravanes munies de certaines plaques de cuisson Suburban. Risques pour la sécurité : Un câblage et/ou des anneaux d'éclairage qui surchauffent et fondent pourraient créer un risque d'incendie. Mesures correctives : Heartland doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur caravane chez un concessionnaire pour désactiver ou enlever les anneaux d'éclairage DEL. Pour réduire les risques pour la sécurité, Heartland recommande de couper l'alimentation électrique de votre caravane lorsqu'elle n'est pas utilisée.
