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.

Plain-English summary

REV Recreation Group is recalling certain 2019-2020 Fleetwood Pace Arrow motorhomes, specifically models 33D, 36U, 35QS, 35S, 35RB, and 35E. The recall involves 155 vehicles where the auxiliary batteries, located in the interior step compartment, are secured by a metal hold-down bracket using carriage bolts and standard nuts.

The hardware used to secure the bracket may loosen over time, allowing the bracket to shift and make contact with the battery terminals. If this contact occurs, it may cause a short circuit, which increases the risk of a fire. No specific injuries or fires have been reported in the source text.

REV will notify owners, and dealers will install replacement battery hold-down mounting hardware free of charge. The recall began on September 17, 2020. Owners can contact REV customer service at 1-800-509-3417 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
