2002–2003 Leisure Freedom recall: electrical system

⚠️ What's wrong

On certain recreational vehicles built on dodge chassis, the isolator wire from the chassis battery is lying on top of the transmission dipstick bracket and could possibly rub through the wire insulation.

💥 The risk

This could cause the wire to short out or arc.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will inspect the wire and re-route the wire over a rubber hose eliminating the possibility of the wire insulation rubbing through. Owner notification is expected to begin during july or august 2003. Owners should contact leisure travel vans at 1-877-288-8088.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
