2000 Overland Lorado & 2000 Overland Osprey recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: motor homes. The electrical conduit was not wrapped with a heat shield allowing the conduit to get too hot and sag.
💥 The risk
If the conduit sags, it gets too close to the exhaust and will overheat the copper wiring inside and burn, increasing the risk of a fire.
🔧 The fix
Overland has gone out of business. Dealers were to wrap the conduit with heat deflector material, add 2 clamp rings, and a mounting clamp to reattach the conduit up toward the frame.
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.)
