On certain travel trailers, the power wire of the slide mechanism(s) and slide rooms may have been incorrectly connected during manufacturing. As a result, the wiring and motor do not have over-current protection. This could result in an increase in amperage draw, and could lead to melting of the power wire and increase the risk of a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the wiring of the slide mechanism(s), and re-wire as necessary. Anti-corrosion spray will also be applied to the electrical connections.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2015550.
