Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Brinkley RV is recalling approximately 48 of its 2026 Model Z trailers because of an electrical defect. The 50-amp shore power inlet lugs, which connect external electricity to the trailer, may have been improperly tightened during production. Dealers will inspect the inlet and properly tighten the lugs as necessary, free of charge.

Risk

If the shore power lugs are not properly tightened, the electrical wires can loosen and overheat while the trailer is connected to power. This overheating significantly increases the risk of an electrical fire.
