Proline Travel Trailer Recall for Fire Risk from Auxiliary Battery Wiring

PROLine is recalling 2010-2013 travel trailers because auxiliary batteries lack proper overcurrent protection, creating a fire risk if wiring is damaged.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk of fire due to a missing safety component (fuse), which fits the 'High' criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

PROLine Products LLC is recalling certain model year 2010-2013 travel trailers manufactured between September 2010 and October 2013. These vehicles were equipped with auxiliary batteries installed by PROLine that did not have a fuse for overcurrent protection.

If the trailer's wiring harness becomes physically damaged, the installed battery could short circuit and melt the wiring, which increases the risk of a fire. The source text does not report any specific incidents of injury or property damage associated with this defect.

PROLine will notify owners, and dealers will install in-line fuse holders free of charge. The recall was expected to begin in early January 2014. Owners may contact PROLine at 1-603-652-7337 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
