The fix
THE DEALER WILL INSTALL ADEQUATE SHELF ATTACHMENT SCREWS AT NO COST TO THE OWNER.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MOTOR HOMES.SYSTEM: EQUIPMENT; FURNACE SHELF; ATTACHMENT SCREWS.CONSEQUENCES OF DEFECT: IF THE FURNACE WAS IN OPERATION AND THE DISLODGEDEXHAUST PIPE WENT UNNOTICED, EXHAUST FUMES COULD BE RELEASED INSIDE THE MOTORHOME AND COULD CAUSE ASPHYXIATION.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
