2003–2007 Setra S417 recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motor coaches, the electrical wiring harness located behind the rear toilet was not properly installed. As a result, rubbing CAN occur on the outside wire insulation causing the insulation to wear away and eventually cause subsequent arcing.
💥 The risk
This could lead to a short circuit and possibly a subsequent fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will check the wiring harness routing and will change the damaged wires. In addition the wiring harness will be relocated in such a way as to prevent rubbing. The recall began on may 18, 2007. Owners may contact setra at 1-800-882-8054.
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.)
