Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer
Problem: Coachmen is recalling 13,662 my 2002-2008 motor homes, fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with glass shower doors and manufactured from june 15, 2001 thorugh august 6, 2007. When pressure is applied to the towel bar on the glass shower door, the edge of the bar may contact the glass.
Risk: Glass breakage may occur which could cause personal injury.
Fix: Owners will be provided with new mounting hardware for the towel bar and installation instructions. If an owner is not comfortable replacing the hardware themselves, a dealer will install the hardware at no cost to them. The recall is expected to begin on or about december 19, 2008. Owners may contact coachmen at 1-574-825-5821.
Electrical system
Problem: On certain rear diesel motor homes containing a 50 amp transfer switch built by intellitec, the material used for the wire lugs was changed from nickel plated to copper lugs. The copper lugs are softer than the nickel plated and do not retain the torque of the screw that clamps the wire connector.
Risk: When the torque is relaxed, the lugs can become loose resulting in excessive heat within the connected wire that could result in a fire.
Fix: Coachmen will be working with intellitec to notify owners and have the repair performed on their vehicles. The recall began on july 14, 2005. Owners may contact coachmen at 1-574-825-1174.
