What's wrong?

The coach battery compartment door support cable on the 2019 Triple E Serenity helps hold the battery compartment door in position when it is open. The battery's positive terminal carries electrical power from the coach battery, so nearby metal parts need insulation or separation to prevent unwanted contact.

On affected Serenity recreational vehicles, the support cable was changed during manufacturing. Instead of a plastic sheath over the metal cable, the exposed cable can reach the positive battery terminal. If the metal cable touches that terminal, it can create a short circuit. That short can make a spark and start a fire at the battery compartment.

There is no separate early warning sign before contact. The sign owners are told to watch for is immediate: if the support cable touches the battery terminal, a spark and fire can occur.

What's the safety risk?

If the battery compartment door support cable touches the positive battery terminal, a short can spark and increase the risk of a fire. Treat any spark at the battery area as a reason to stop using that compartment and contact the dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Triple E dealer.

  4. Avoid touching the battery-compartment door support cable or positive battery terminal until the repair is complete.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Triple E technician replaces the battery compartment door support metal cable with a cable covered in tubing. The recall repair is free, including parts and labor. Triple E also provides a path for retail owners who use a servicing center instead of a dealer. The owner can be reimbursed, or the servicing center can be paid directly by Triple E for the covered recall work. Ask the service desk or servicing center what documentation Triple E needs before the repair is submitted.
