ON CERTAIN 45' MOTOR HOMES, AN INCORRECT BUSSBAR CABLE CONNECTOR WAS INSTALLED IN THE MAIN POWER DISTRIBUTION BOX. UNDER HIGH LOAD CONDITIONS, ARCING AND SHORTING COULD OCCUR WHICH CAN DESTROY THE BUSSBAR ASSEMBLY AND CAUSE LOSS OF POWER TO THE ENGINE.
SUDDEN ENGINE SHUT-DOWN AND LOSS OF THE ABILITY TO MOVE THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE ROADWAY COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
