2006 Jayco Escapade recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motor homes, the wire harness may have been routed too close to the exhaust tail pipe which may result in the cable melting and creating an electrical short.
💥 The risk
This condition, if not addressed, could result in a fire, accident, injury or death.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect, reroute and replace the wire harness free of charge. The recall began on february 7, 2006. Owners may contact jayco at 1-800-283-8267.
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.)
