NHTSA campaign 05V360000 · Part 573 safety recall report

Country Coach Inc: Electrical System › Wiring › Fuses and Circuit Breakers

Country Coach Inc reported this defect to federal regulators on Aug 16, 2005 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 6. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.

The defect

ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES, THE USE OF A 20 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER IN THE 120V AC PANEL FOR AUDIO/VIDEO EQUIPMENT DOES NOT PROTECT THE CIRCUIT AGAINST COMPONENT FAILURES. THE CIRCUIT IS ONLY RATED FOR A 15 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER.

The risk

THE 20 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER USED ON THE AUDIO/VIDEO CIRCUIT EXCEEDED THE LOAD CAPACITY OF THE WIRE. THIS COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.

The remedy

DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE 20 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER, AND INSTALL A 15 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER. THE RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 29, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT COUNTRY COACH AT 800-547-8015.

What this page is, and what to do next

A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.

This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 05V360000.
