NHTSA's recall notice
As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 96V066000.
Defect description
THE FUSE FOR THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT CIRCUIT MAY BE UNDER RATED FOR THESE MOTORHOMES. THE CIRCUIT REQUIRES A 20 AMP FUSE AND A 15 AMP FUSE MAY HAVE BEEN INSTALLED. ALSO THE CIRCUIT CONNECTING THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS TO THE FUSE PANEL INCORRECTLY STATES 15 AMP.
Safety consequence
IF THE 15 AMP FUSE IS INSTALLED AND THE DRIVER HAS NOT MANUALLY TURNED THE HEADLIGHTS ON, THE FUSE WILL BLOW WHEN THE HIGH BEAMS A RETURNED ON. THE HEADLIGHTS WILL THEN GO OFF INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
Manufacturer remedy
DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE ANY 15 AMP FUSE IN THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT CIRCUIT WITH A 20 AMP FUSE. A LABEL WILL ALSO BE INSTALLED ON THE POSITIVE WIRE FOR THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS AT THE FUSE PANEL AND THE LETTERING ON THE FUSE PANEL WHICH PRESENTLY READS 15 AMP WILL BE COVERED.
Notes
SYSTEM: LIGHTING; FUSE; OTHER PART. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CLASS A MOTORHOMES BUILT ON CHEVROLET, FORD, OSHKOSH AND FREIGHTLINER CHASSIS. NOTE: OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, SHOULD CONTACT HOLIDAY RAMBLER AT 1-800-685-6545.
