Summary

On your vehicle, it may be possible that the engine cover insulation does not fully extend to the perimeter of the factory engine cover. In addition, vehicles built on a Ford chassis may have higher engine compartment temperatures during certain idle conditions. This may result in elevated temperatures at certain areas of the engine cover surface in the passenger compartment on both driver and passenger sides. Direct and continuous contact with exposed skin at these locations may cause skin irritation and/or a minor burn. This affects the following Thor Motor Coach products: model year 2021/2022 Axis, Chateau, Coleman, Daybreak, Four Winds, Freedom Elite, Magnitude, Majestic, Outlaw, Quantum, and Vegas motorhomes
