2016 Triple E Unity recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Triple E Recreational Vehicles (Triple E) is recalling certain model year 2016 Unity motorhomes, model U24X, manufactured October 15, 2015, to June 16, 2016. The affected vehicles have a showerhead that can be lowered into the shower pan or sink basin.
💥 The risk
In the event of a waste water backup, a submerged showerhead may syphon the waste water, possibly contaminating the fresh water supply, increasing the risk of injury.
🔧 The fix
Triple E will notify owners, and dealers will install two guide rings to prevent the shower head from lowering into the shower pan or sink basin, free of charge. The recall began on September 23, 2016. Owners may contact Triple E customer service at 1-877-992-9906. Triple E's number for this recall is CA #8368-1.
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.)
