On certain travel trailers, the switched accessory LED light that is located on the front cap of the camper may have a fault that could cause it to short circuit. Should a short occur, the wiring could overheat and cause a fire, which could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the current light with a different light which has built in voltage protection.
On certain travel trailers, the Norco slide room mechanisms could be defective. The drive train that controls the inward and outward motion of the room could have been manufactured with incorrectly rated screws. If the screws were to fail, the slide room could extend while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the defective screws with correctly rated bolts.
