NHTSA Complaint #10966340 — 2015 THOR MOTOR COACH CITATION

DISCOVERED TODAY THAT THE MAIN SHORE ELECTRIC BREAKER NEUTRAL WAS LOOSE. FROM MY EXAMINATION THE NEUTRAL BUS SCREW WAS STRIPPED AND THE WIRE WAS LOOSE WITHIN THE BUS. THIS APPEARS TO BE FROM ORIGINAL MANUFACTURE SINCE THE FASTENING SCREW WOULD NOT LOOSEN OR TIGHTEN BUT WAS FIRMLY STUCK IN THE BUS. I FOUND THIS WHEN TROUBLE SHOOTING THE LOSS OF SHORE POWER AND THE NEUTRAL WIRE CAUSE A LARGE SPARK WHEN IT MADE CONTACT WITH THE BUS. AS SEEN IN THE PICTURE THE NEUTRAL WIRE IS BURNED FROM POSSIBLE FROM PREVIOUS SPARKING. THIS COULD BE A SIGNIFICANT FIRE HAZARD FORM THE SPARKING. I WANTED TO JUST SEND THIS TO THE MANUFACTURER BUT THEIR WEB SITE DOESN'T HAVE E-MAIL CONTACTS AND DOESN'T ALLOW PICTURE UPLOADING THAT I COULD TELL. THIS OCCURRED STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY.
