COLEMAN CO., INC.
The problem
THE DEFECT INVOLVES THE 115 VAC ROMEX WIRE ROUTED INSIDE THE REAR BODY PANEL AND ACROSS THE SPARE TIRE MOUNTING BRACKET. THIS WIRE MAY SLIP AND BE PINCHED BETWEEN THE SPARE TIRE MOUNTING BOLT AND THE BULKHEAD. IF THE INSULATION IS DAMAGED AND IF THE 120 VOLT AC LINE (CORD) IS PLUGGED IN, THE TRAILER WOULD BE AT A 120 VOLT AC POTENTIAL (HOT). CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: IF THE TRAILER IS AT 120 VOLT AC POTENTIAL, A PERSON MAY BE SHOCKED, BURNED OR ELECTROCUTED.
What owners should do
INSPECTING AND MODIFYING WIRING IN SUCH A FASHION AS TO PRECLUDE ANY POTENTIAL SLIPPAGE OF WIRING INTO THE PATH OF THE SPARE TIRE MOUNTING BRACKET ASSEMBLY.
