CarRecallWatch- Component
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
- Problem
- REV Recreation Group (REV) is recalling certain 2019 Fleetwood Flair and Holiday Rambler Admiral, model 28A, Class A motorhomes. These vehicles were manufactured with a non flexible Romex wire routed from a 120-Volt nightstand receptacle, through the traveling and stationary bed platform sections, instead of flexible sheathed SJO cable. As a result, the Romex wire may become damaged from the movement of the bedroom slide-out.
- Risk
- The damaged wiring could cause an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire.
- Remedy
- REV has repaired all of the affected Class A motorhomes while they were in dealer inventory by re-routing the wire harness to ensure that the flexible-sheathed SJO cable is routed through the traveling and stationary bed platform sections in the slide-out area, free of charge. All vehicles were repaired as of July 3, 2018. Owners may contact REV customer service at 1-800-509-3417. REV's number for this recall is 180618REV.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
What this recall means for you
The wiring running from a 120-volt nightstand outlet through the bed platform sections is rigid Romex cable instead of flexible SJO cable. Movement of the bedroom slide-out can damage this wire, which could cause an electrical short.
An electrical short increases the risk of a fire in the motorhome. Owners should take this recall seriously.
According to the notice, all affected motorhomes were already repaired while in dealer inventory, with the wire re-routed using flexible SJO cable. If you own one of these vehicles, contact REV customer service at 1-800-509-3417 for more information, and check your VIN for any open recalls.
