Defect SummaryOn certain motorhomes, fifth wheels and travel trailers equipped with norcold refrigerator cooling units model numbers 1200lr and 1200rim, these refrigerators can experience low cycle fatigue failure which can lead to the liquid solution slowly leaking from the sealed, pressurized cooling unit through a small crack.
Consequence SummaryIf a leak occurs and the unit is continually operated, hydrogen gas may be expelled and can be ignited, resulting in a fire, possibly causing serious injury or death.
Corrective SummaryNorcold will notify its customers and provide a replacement cooling unit free of charge. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact norcold service center at 1-800-667-3005 or monaco at 574-862-7211.

Defect SummaryVehicle description: motor homes equipped with meritor wabco phase 1, d-version antilock brake system (abs), fail to comply to the requirements of fmvss no. 105, hydraulic and electric brake systems. an internal diagnostic system in the abs may not detect an extreme wheel speed sensor air gap. such a condition could possibly occur during (1) original assembly or (2) subsequent wheel end service.
Consequence SummaryThis could disable the anti-lock function on the affected wheel without providing the required operator warning that the abs function requires servicing.
Corrective SummaryThe abs ecu will be removed and replaced on these motor homes. meritor is conducting the owner notification and remedy scheduling for this campaign. owner notification is expected to begin during april/may 2001. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact meritor wabco at 1-800-535-5560.

Defect SummaryVehicle description: 1999 and 2000 motor homes manufactured between april 2 and november 20, 1999, and equipped with abs systems with brake wiring harness part #2505168. the electrical connector which connects to the modulator was mis-wired causing the anti-lock brake modulator to react improperly while regulating hydraulic pressure to the appropriate wheel.
Consequence SummaryFailure of the anti-lock braking system could cause a loss of control of the vehicle in certain braking situations.
Corrective SummaryDealers will install a wiring harness update, which properly routes the electrical signal from the ecu to the modulator. 7owner notification is expected to begin july 13, 2000. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact safari/beaver/harney at 1-800-344-6332.
