Recalls- Electrical system wiring. Recall 20V423000 affects 934 vehicles due to an incorrectly installed 100amp converter breaker instead of a 70amp one. Overheating of wiring connected to the breaker may occur, increasing the risk of fire. Dealers will replace the converter breaker free of charge. No "Do Not Drive" or "Park Outside" advisory applies.
- LP hose clearance. Recall 18V741000 covers 1,384 vehicles where the propane hose may contact the refrigerator metal plate causing damage and potential leaks. This increases fire risk. Dealers remove part of the refrigerator base plate to provide clearance at no charge. No restrictions on vehicle use apply.
- Seatbelt warning light. Recall 19V775000 impacts 378 vehicles due to the seatbelt-unfastened warning light failing to illuminate for about five seconds after ignition is turned on. This violates FMVSS 208 requirements. Dealers will reprogram the instrument panel cluster at no cost. There is no "Do Not Drive" or "Park Outside" directive.
- Seatbelt warning device. Recall 19V775000 duplicates the previous entry and involves the same 378 vehicles with the seatbelt warning light defect. Reprogramming will be performed free by dealers. No operation restrictions are in place.
- Rear suspension U-bolts. Recall 18V385000 concerns 691 vehicles built on Ford E-450 chassis where rear axle U-bolts may be insufficiently tightened. This can lead to axle separation and crash risk. Dealers will torque the U-bolts properly at no charge. No "Do Not Drive" or "Park Outside" warnings apply.
