INSPECTORS FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION INSPECTED THE VEHICLE, AND DETERMINED THAT THE FAILURE WAS A RESULT OF THE SEPARATION OF THE MOUNTING BRACKET DUE TO SUPERFICIAL AND SPOTTY WELDING.

I HAVE 2002 BEAVER CONTESSA MOTORHOME WITH A 330 CATAPILLAR ENGINE. RECENTLY I EXPERIENCED A PROBLEM WITH MY ALTERNATOR WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE A BURNED WIRE IN THE WIRE HARNESS. THE WIRE CONNECTED FROM THE ALTERNATOR I TERMINAL TO THE STARTER RELAY. THE FIRE BURNED SEVERAL OTHER WIRES IN THE HARNESS AND SHORTED THE RADIO AND TWO GAUGES. THE WIRE COMPLETELY BURNED THROUGH BEFORE ADDITIONAL DAMAGE WAS DONE. *JB
THE RIGHT FRONT BRAKE LINE WAS CUT BY THE HYDRAULIC JACK FOR THE LEVELING SYSTEM. ALL THE FLUID RAN OUT WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. NO BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, SO DRIVER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND DROVE FOR SEVERAL DAYS UNTIL IT WAS FOUND BY INSPECTION. APPARENTLY, THE FRONT BRAKES ARE INDEPENDENT OF THE REAR BRAKES, SO THE PEDAL REMAINED NORMAL WHEN APPLIED. *JB
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL/ACCELERATOR PEDALS SUPPLIED BY WILLIAMS CONTROLS INDUSTRIES, THE WELD ATTACHING THE CLEVIS TO THE PLATE HAS INSUFFICIENT PENETRATION AND COULD ALLOW THE CLEVIS TO SEPARATE FROM THE PLATE.
Consequence: IF THE CLEVIS SEPARATED FROM THE PLATE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN USE, THE VEHICLE WOULD RETURN TO IDLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THESE PEDALS. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN SEPTEMBER 9, 2002. OWNERS WHO DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT MONACO AT 1-800-344-6332 OR WILLIAMS CONTROL AT 1-503-684-8600.
MONACO IS RECALLING CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH NORCOLD REFRIGERATORS. A FATIGUE FAILURE IN THE SECTION OF THE COOLING UNIT WHICH CONTAINS THE REFRIGERANT COULD ALLOW THE LIQUID SOLUTION TO SLOWLY LEAK.
Consequence: EXTENDED OPERATION OF A LEAKING COOLING UNIT COULD LEAD TO A FIRE FROM GAS WHICH MIGHT ESCAPE.
Remedy: MONACO IS WORKING WITH NORCOLD TO REPAIR THESE REFRIGERATORS. NORCOLD WILL PROVIDE THERMAL SWITCH KITS TO OWNERS ALONG WITH THE NECESSARY FORMS AND INSTRUCTIONS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 29, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NORCOLD AT 1-800-767-9101 OR MONACO AT 1-800-685-6545.

WHILE HAVING A MODIFICATION DONE TO THE REFRIGERATOR ON A NORCOLD RECALL, I LOOKED INSIDE THE COMPARTMENT WHERE THE REFRIGERATOR RESIDES. ON THE CEILING, NEAR THE VENT OPENING, I NOTICED A CHARRED AREA IN THE CEILING MATERIAL, A WOOD PANELING. THE CHARRED AREA WAS ACTUALLY BURNED THROUGH THE WOOD PANELING AND INTO THE STYRENE INSULATION ABOVE. I DISCOVERED THE CHARRED AREA WAS ROUND, ABOUT 2" IN DIAMETER, AND DIRECTLY ABOVE WHERE THE FLUE PIPE FOR THE PROPANE COMBUSTION IN THE REFRIGERATOR ENDED. THE FLUE PIPE ENDS ABOUT 3" BELOW THE CEILING MA…

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
