Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Brinkley RV is recalling approximately 3,157 of its 2023-2024 Model Z fifth wheels and Model Z-Air travel trailers due to a serious electrical wiring defect. The 12-volt system in these recreational vehicles may have been incorrectly wired with undersized wires for the refrigerator and without necessary overcurrent protection. This defect can cause the refrigerator wiring to overheat during use, which can lead to a vehicle fire. Dealers will replace the affected wiring free of charge to resolve the safety issue.

Risk

The incorrectly installed and undersized wiring for the refrigerator lacks adequate protection against electrical surges. This causes the wires to overheat, significantly increasing the risk of a fire occurring within the vehicle.
