Jayco Recalls 2022 White Hawk Travel Trailers Due to Fire Risk

Jayco is recalling 2022 White Hawk travel trailers because loose power inlet wiring may cause an electrical arc or short, increasing the risk of a fire.

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 (electrical connection) that explicitly increases the risk of a fire, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Jayco, Inc. is recalling certain 2022 White Hawk travel trailers equipped with a 50-amp shore power inlet. The recall involves 196 vehicles.

The power inlet lug bolts on these trailers may have been manufactured with excessively hard metal. This defect prevents the bolts from being tightened properly, resulting in a loose wiring connection. Loose wiring can cause an electrical arc or short, which increases the risk of a fire.

Dealers will inspect and replace the power inlet, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 20, 2022. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
