Issue

On certain motorhomes, an undersized thermal breaker (10 amp) may have been installed in the windshield wiper motor circuit during vehicle assembly. Heavy loads such as high winds, heavy rain, snow, or a dry windshield, could cause the wipers to fail. Loss of windshield wiping capability, should it occur during a rainy/snowy day, may compromise the driver's ability to see the road and its users, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the existing breaker with a 15 amp version.
