What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Storyteller Overland (Storyteller) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Storyteller Mode LT motorhomes. The wires connecting the secondary alternator to the auxiliary power system may be improperly routed, allowing them to contact the CV axle shaft and damage the wires.

The risk

Damaged or frayed wires can cause an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Dealers will reroute the wiring and add a heat shield. In addition, wires will be inspected for damage and replaced as necessary. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 21, 2022. Owners may contact Storyteller customer service at 1-888-999-7442.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
