Issue

On certain motorhomes equipped with a Powerglide chassis, the engine exhaust pipe is located too close to the vehicle's floor, allowing heat from the exhaust pipe to melt nearby insulation. This could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will fasten a heat shield to the floor and install an insulating sock around the exhaust pipe.
