Triple E Unity Motorhomes Recalled for Battery Gas Leak Risk

Triple E is recalling 2015-2016 Unity motorhomes because the battery compartment was not properly sealed, allowing explosive gases to enter the vehicle and increasing fire risk.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (improperly sealed battery compartment) that creates a risk of fire, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe rating.
