On certain motorhomes, incorrect software programmed into the instrument panel cluster may not allow certain driver warnings, required by CMVSS 101 and 105, to be displayed. As a result of this incorrect software, the instrument cluster may fail to illuminate warning lamps indicating brake system failure. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the instrument panel cluster.
Certain motorhomes equipped with the slide out option were manufactured with a 20/15 amp breaker instead of a 15/15 amp breaker. The use of the incorrect breaker size may cause the failure of the breaker to trip when the circuit is overloaded, which could result in a fire and could cause death or injury to the occupants. Correction: Dealer will replace the 20/15 amp breaker with the correct 15/15 amp breaker.
On certain recreational vehicles equipped with a Samsung microwave oven, an electrical short can occur in the microwave oven's membrane panel keypad causing the oven to activate without pressing any keypads. This could result in excessive heat, smoke or possibly a fire. Correction: Samsung will notify its customers and repair the membrane panel keypad. In the meantime, consumers should unplug their microwave ovens, if possible. If the consumer is unable to unplug the microwave, they should leave the door ajar until the membrane panel keypad is replaced.
On certain vehicles, the brake system warning indicator will not illuminate when the ignition is in the start position or when the brake fluid is low. Correction: The brake warning indicator bulb from the right side indicator position must be transferred to the left side indicator position of the instrument cluster and the wire harness must be modified.
