On certain motorhomes equipped with the rear sofa floor plan, the seatbelt latch or buckle could fall between the sofa base and the sofa back, and contact electrical equipment located under the sofa. In addition, metal cables under the seat could break and fall on the same electrical equipment. These issues could cause an electrical short, which could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a cover over the electrical components located under the sofa.
