MONACO COACH CORP. recall for electrical system, reported to NHTSA on Sep 10, 2001, covering about 83 vehicles.
The problem
Vehicle description: motor homes built on roadmaster chassis. As the result of the close proximity of the engine system in respect to the routing of the 12-volt DC battery cables, it is possible for the insulation on the battery cable to melt and create a short.
The risk
This could result in the loss of the 12-volt DC system and engine operation, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will add two heat shields to the exhaust system to deflect heat, and add heat shielding sleeve material over the battery cables in the area of exposure to exhaust heat. Owner notification began july 22, 2001. 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 monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
