Electrical system:12v/24v/48v battery
Problem: Fleetwood is recalling 384 my 2008 terra and fiesta motor homes. The battery control center (bcc) miscellaneous wire harness is routed between framing at the driver's wheel well and the front leveling jack.
Risk: This routing can cause the wires to be pinched resulting in shorted or open circuits which could lead to blown fuses, house component nonoperation and may result in a fire.
Fix: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, reroute the bcc miscellaneous wire harness free of charge. The recall began on august 27, 2008. Owners may contact fleetwood at 1-800-509-3418.
Equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer
Problem: Fleetwood is recalling 50 my 2008 fiesta and terra model motor homes. The entry step attachment cradle/support may bend as a result of step usage and insufficient structural material strength, causing the step to become unstable.
Risk: If the step were unstable, this could possibly result in a risk of personal injury, vehicle and/or other property damage.
Fix: Fleetwood will inspect and, if necessary, reinforce the entry step attachment cradle/support. The recall began on march 26, 2008. Owners may contact fleetwood at 1-800-509-3418.
