What's wrong?

The transfer switch in a 2010-2011 Entegra Aspire motor home manages incoming electrical power. It routes power from the shore-power cord or the generator to the coach electrical system. Inside that switch, the buss bar is a metal conductor that carries current across the switch and gives the connection a solid path.

On affected Aspire motor homes, the problem is an improper electrical connection at the buss bar. That means the current path is not secured as designed inside the transfer switch. A poor connection at that point leaves the electrical system relying on a weak contact instead of a clean, fixed connection.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner should not count on a dashboard light, sound, smell, or power symptom to appear before the transfer switch connection has already become a problem.

Who's affected?

Covers the Aspire across the 2010 and 2011 model years, with the electrical system listed for both years.

A matching year and model does not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.

What's the safety risk?

An improper connection can overheat and melt the transfer switch, increasing the risk of a fire. Schedule recall service promptly, and ask the dealer for guidance before using the transfer switch again. Repair will be free at any franchised Entegra dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2010-2011 Entegra Aspire is included in this recall.
  2. Call Entegra customer service at 1-800-945-4787 to confirm current repair scheduling for recall number 11V183.
  3. Ask for the free transfer-switch replacement that fixes the improper buss-bar connection tied to overheating and fire risk.
  4. Bring the recall notice if Entegra mailed one. If not, reference recall number 11V183 when you call.
  5. Avoid using the affected electrical system until Entegra confirms the transfer-switch repair is complete.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, an Entegra technician replaces the transfer switch in the motor home electrical system. That switch routes power between the coach's power sources, so the repair is a full switch replacement rather than an owner adjustment. The recall filing says the repair was expected to begin during April 2011. Parts and labor are covered under the recall once the dealer remedy is available.
