1991 FLEETWOOD FLAIR MOTORHOME ROOF AIR CONDITIONER KEPT TRIPPING THE CIRCUIT BREAKER ON A RECENT TRIP. THE BREAKER WAS VERY HOT. I OPENED THE PANEL AND FOUND A LOOSE LINE CONNECTION TO THE CIRCUIT BREAKER BUT NOTICED THAT ALL 110 VOLT WIRING IN MY MOTORHOME IS SOLID CONDUCTOR, NOT STRANDED. EVEN THE DUMBEST ELECTRICAL ENGINEER KNOWS NEVER TO USE SOLID CONDUCTOR WIRING IN A VIBRATION ENVIRONMENT SUCH AS CARS, BOATS, AIRPLANES AND MOTORHOMES. SINCE THE MOTORHOME IS NEARLY 20 YEARS OLD I AM FEARFUL OF FIRE IN THE 110 VOLT WIRING DUE TO FATIGUE OF THE SOLID CONDUCTORS. THE LOOSE CIRCUIT BREAKER CONNECTION MAY BE JUST THE BEGINNING OF A SERIOUS FIRE POTENTIAL.. *TR

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
