Recall 20V-303: 2020 Thor Motor Coach Axis, 2020–2021 Thor Motor Coach Chateau and 3 more
Thor Motor Coach recall for electronic stability control (esc), reported to NHTSA on May 27, 2020, covering about 34 vehicles.
The problem
Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Quantum, Chateau and Four Winds, and 2020 Vegas and Axis motorhomes built on a Ford E-series chassis. A wire harness in the rear of the vehicle may contact the vehicle frame, resulting in damage to the circuits that support the fuel pump and the anti-lock braking system (ABS).
The risk
Damage to the fuel pump circuit in the wiring harness could result in an unexpected engine stall. Damage to the ABS wiring can lead to reduction of ABS functionality and a loss of roll stability control (RSC) functionality. These scenarios increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
TMC will notify owners, and Ford dealers will inspect the wire harness for damage. If no damage is found, dealers will apply anti-abrasion tape over the area and ensure clearance to surrounding components. If damage is found, dealers will splice in new wire and apply anti-abrasion tape over the area and ensure clearance to surrounding components. All services will be performed free of charge. The recall The recall began June 25, 2020., 2020. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000189.
