  4. Heater core (visibility)

    NHTSA 86V063000 Reported 319 vehicles potentially affected CHANCE COACH, INC.

    Under certain conditions the plastic fan for the under floor heater could catch on fire due to the close proximity to the low speed resistor which generates enough heat to ignite the fan. Consequence of defect: under certain conditions, this could result in a fire in the passenger compartment.

    Remedy: Remove the in line resistor and install two terminating wire end connectors to eliminate the potential fire hazard.

    Model years: 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983

  5. Cables (electrical system)

    NHTSA 83V083000 Reported 83 vehicles potentially affected CHANCE COACH, INC.

    Battery cables may rub against brackets or other metal components causing the possibility of electrical shorts. This may be due to missing tie-down clamps, incorrect routing of battery cables, or lack of preventive maintenance.

    Remedy: All damaged or worn cables will be replaced, cable routing will be corrected and cables will be covered with flexguard to prevent wear.

    Model years: 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981
