- Summary
- On certain recreational vehicles built on Dodge chassis, the isolator wire from the chassis battery is lying on top of the transmission dipstick bracket and could possibly rub through the wire insulation.
- Consequence
- This could cause the wire to short out or arc.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the wire and re-route the wire over a rubber hose eliminating the possibility of the wire insulation rubbing through. Owner notification is expected to begin during July or August 2003. Owners should contact leisure travel vans at 1-877-288-8088.
- Notes
- Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).

Has your Leisure been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Leisure dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
