Recall 07V-101: 2007 Fleetwood American Eagle, 2007 Fleetwood American Tradition

The problem

On certain class a motor homes, the service compartment that contains the inverter and the house batteries is insufficiently sealed from spark producing devices. In the event out gassing occurs from the batteries and the gases are exposed to a spark of measurable size and duration, ignition of the gasses may occur.

The risk

This has the potential to ignite combustible objects within the compartment.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and install a compartment spacer and bulb seal to the service compartment that contains the house batteries free of charge. The recall began on march 30, 2007. Owners may contact fleetwood at 800-509-3418.
