ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
- The defect
- Airstream, Inc. (Airstream) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Interstate 24 and Interstate 19 motorhomes. The main cable from the battery to the fuse panel may be under-protected by a 200-amp fuse, which could allow the wiring to overheat in the event of a short circuit.
- What it can cause
- Wiring that overheats can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the 200-amp fuse with a 50-amp fuse, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 14, 2023. Owners may contact Airstream customer service at 1-877-596-6505 or 1-937-596-6111 ext. 7401 or 7411.
- 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.nhtsa.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 105 vehicles this is a small campaign: 69% 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 model years 2023 to 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2023, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Airstream vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 12 times before this, most recently in May 2023 as 23V327000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V432000 (electrical system), 23V772000 (equipment), 23V519000 (electrical system), 23V134000 (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 Airstream, Inc. with NHTSA on June 28, 2023 as campaign 23V454000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
