Problem: Airstream is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 Interstate motorhomes manufactured August 2007, through December 2012 and equipped with the rear sofa floor plan. The electrical equipment underneath the sofa may come in contact with the seat belt buckle or metal cables from the seat.
Risk: If the metal sofa components come in contact with the electrical components, electrical arcing could occur. Arcing may lead to a vehicle fire.
Remedy & notes
Airstream will notify owners, and dealers will install a cover over the electrical components, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by late January 2013. Owners may contact Airstream at 1-877-596-6111.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Problem: Airstream is recalling certain model year 2008-2012 interstate touring coaches manufactured from September 18, 2008, through June 24, 2011. The driver's seat belt buckle wire could be damaged or severed when the driver's seat is adjusted forward, backward, or swiveled. This wire allows communication between the supplemental restraint system (SRS) and the vehicle control module (ECM) indicating if the driver's seat is occupied and the seat belt is buckled.
