2003 Lance Camper recalls

Recall 05V-136: Equipment

Reported Apr 7, 2005 · 3,303 vehicles affected · LANCE CAMPER MFG. CORP.

Problem: On certain campers equipped with samsung microwave ovens, models mr5491g, mr5492w, mr5493g, mr5494w, mr7491g, mr7492w, mr7493g, mr6698wb, mr6699gb, mr6699sb, mr1031wb, mr1032bb, mr1033sb, mr1351wb, and mr1352bb, the microwaves 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 may contact samsung at 1-800-932-3837 or lance at 661-949-3322.
