2000 Coachmen Pathfinder 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-273: Seat Belts
Problem: Vehicle description: class a and c motor homes equipped with safety belt assemblies built by AM-safe. On some seat belts, the buckle and connector may unlatch during a collision.
Risk: Serious injury or death could occur if the vehicle occupant is not properly restrained.
Fix: Am-safe in notifying customers that they will inspect and replace the defective buckle assemblies free of charge.
