Dutchmen recall: Fuel system, other
What is wrong
Dutchmen is recalling certain model year 2011 rubicon and voltage recreational vehicles manufactured between august 16, 2010, through december 23, 2011. The fuel shut-off timer modules are defective. The module was supposed to be programmed with a 5 minute shut-off feature, which automatically shuts off the fuel pump after 5 minutes of no activity. The defective modules do not have this automatic shut-off feature programmed into them. This allows the fuel pump to continuously run if not shut off in the initial 5 minute period, causing it to overheat and fail.
What could happen
Overheating may lead to fire, property damage, or personal injury.
The fix
Dealers will replace the defective fuel shut-off timer modules free of charge. The safety recall began on january 17, 2011. Owners may contact dutchmen at 574-537-0700.
