2006 GOSHEN GC II; 2007 GOSHEN GC II
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Goshen Coach is recalling certain 2006-2007 Goshen GC II motor homes equipped with Trans Air TA 73 evaporators. The evaporator's power resistor, which controls blower speed, can overheat and melt if a specific electrical short occurs in the low or medium speed circuit while the blower operates on high speed. This overheating can cause the plastic blower housing to ignite, creating a fire hazard.
To address this safety issue, Goshen Coach and Trans Air will install a thermal shutdown device in the speed resistor circuit at no charge to owners. The recall began on November 4, 2010. Affected consumers should contact Trans Air Warranty and Service Center at 1-800-673-2446 to arrange the free repair.

THIS WOULD CAUSE THE RESISTOR TEMPERATURE TO RISE TO A POINT WHERE IT WILL MELT AND POSSIBLY IGNITE THE PLASTIC BLOWER HOUSING TO WHICH IT IS MOUNTED. THE OVERHEATING CAN RESULT IN A FIRE.
GOSHEN COACH IN COOPERATION WITH TRANS AIR WILL INSTALL A THERMAL SHUTDOWN DEVICE IN SERIES WITH THE SPEED RESISTORS. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 4, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TRANS AIR WARRANTY AND SERVICE CENTER AT 1-800-673-2446.
GOSHEN COACH IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2007 GOSHEN GC II MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH TRANS AIR TA 73 EVAPORATORS. THE EVAPORATOR UTILIZES A POWER RESISTOR TO REGULATE BLOWER SPEED. SHOULD A SHORT OCCUR IN THE "LOW OR MEDIUM SPEED" CIRCUIT WHILE THE BLOWER IS IN HIGH SPEED, THE SHORT WILL CAUSE THE SUPPLY VOLTAGE TO FEEDBACK THROUGH THE RESISTOR TO GROUND, NOT DRAWING ENOUGH CURRENT TO TRIP THE FUSE.
