## The problem

Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2021 Daybreak, Four Winds, Quantum, Chateau, and Freedom Elite motorhomes built on the 2020 Ford E-Series chassis.  The battery cable may not have been properly secured within the chassis rail, which can cause it to contact the exhaust manifold and heat shield.

## The safety risk

Battery cable contact with the exhaust manifold and heat shield can increase the risk of a fire.

## The remedy

TMC will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the routing of the battery cable.  If needed the cable will be re-routed and properly secured, free of charge.  This recall began September 11, 2020.  Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867.  TMC's number for this recall is RC000197.
