2001 Coachmen Leprechaun recalls
Recall 03V-373: Equipment
Problem: On certain motor homes, travel trailers, and fifth wheel trailers equipped with samsung microwave ovens, these units were produced with a defective panel. An electrical short can occur between circuit patterns on the membrane panel, especially overlapped by a "jumper" or jump wire. This may cause the oven to activate without pressing any key pads.
Risk: An electrical short can occur causing the oven to activate without pressing any key pads. This could result in excessive heat, smoke, or possibly a fire.
Fix: Samsung will notify customers and repair the panel free of charge. In the meantime, consumers should unplug their microwave, if possible. If the consumer is unable to unplug the microwave, they should leave the door ajar until the panel is replaced. Consumers should never use the microwave oven for storage or leave any towels, paper, cloth or other products in the microwave after use. 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 samsung at 800-932-3837 or coachmen at 1-219-825-5821.
Recall 00V-290: Electrical System
Problem: Vehicle description: mini-motor homes, model number 305. The battery cable that provides power from the coach battery to the generator was routed so it crosses over the top of the catalytic converter heat shield.
Risk: Under extreme temperature conditions, this could cause the cable's insulation to melt resulting in a high resistance short that could potentially lead to a fire.
Fix: Coachmen will inspect to determine if the wires are properly routed. If necessary, the wires will be re-routed.
