On certain motorhomes, the 110V AC electrical wiring for the microwave may not have been secured adequately within the refrigerator cabinet during vehicle assembly. As a result, the wiring could chafe against the back of the refrigerator which, over time, could cause abrasion damage to the cable insulation, possibly resulting in an electrical short circuit. An electrical short could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will secure and, if needed, repair the electrical wiring. Refrigerator coolant tubes will also be inspect and repaired as required.
