2007 Fleetwood American Eagle & 2007 Fleetwood American Tradition recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain class a motor homes, the service compartment that contains the inverter and the house batteries is insufficiently sealed from spark producing devices. In the event out gassing occurs from the batteries and the gases are exposed to a spark of measurable size and duration, ignition of the gasses may occur.
💥 The risk
This has the potential to ignite combustible objects within the compartment.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and install a compartment spacer and bulb seal to the service compartment that contains the house batteries free of charge. The recall began on march 30, 2007. Owners may contact fleetwood at 800-509-3418.
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.)
