What is wrong
ON CERTAIN MOTORHOMES, EXPOSURE TO HEAT IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT COULD DECREASE THE LIFE OF THE CABLE CONSTRAINT COMPONENTS. THIS COULD ALLOW THE ELECTRICAL CABLES TO COME IN CONTACT WITH, OR BE DAMAGED BY, EXHAUST COMPONENTS.
What can happen
THIS COULD CAUSE DETERIORATION OF CABLE INSULATION OR SHORTING OF ELECTRICAL CABLES RESULTING IN A FIRE.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
