ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

The defect
Triple E Recreational Vehicles (Triple E) is recalling certain 2020 Wonder W24RTB, W24MB, and W24FTB travel trailers. The 12V ceiling pot light wires are not protected with a grommet where they pass through the aluminum tubing, allowing them to chafe and arc.
What it can cause
Arcing wires can increase the risk of a fire.
What the dealer does
Triple E has notified owners, and dealers will cover the ceiling pot light wiring in a split tubing or install a grommet to protect the wire from the metal edges of the tubing, free of charge. The recall began March 13, 2020. Owners may contact Triple E customer service at 1-877-992-9906. Triple E's number for this recall is CA#9643-1.
NHTSA's note
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.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 10 vehicles this is a small campaign: 92% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2020, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2020, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.

Triple E RV vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 2 times before this, most recently in June 2018 as 18V422000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 7 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V532000 (structure), 23V279000 (structure), 21V673000 (electrical system), 21V400000 (equipment).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Triple E Recreational Vehicles with NHTSA on March 6, 2020 as campaign 20V134000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
