Issue
On certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner XCR chassis, a battery cable mounting bracket may not have been installed correctly. As a result, the battery cable may be improperly routed and/or clipped, potentially causing the cable to short against the frame rail, which could increase the risk of a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facilities will inspect the mounting of the battery cable bracket, and repair as necessary.
