On certain motorhomes, the engine exhaust pipe is located too close to a storage compartment, allowing heat from the exhaust pipe to melt/damage the cargo storage box and nearby components. This could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install an exhaust heat shield.
