2020–2021 Entegra and Jayco: visibility recall
A wiring harness that overheats increases the risk of a fire.
What was reported
Source: manufacturer filing, 49 CFR Part 573Reported to NHTSA Jul 14, 2023 by Jayco, Inc, owners notified Aug 24, 2023.
What that means, in plain English
Source: WhichTrim's reading of the filing above — not NHTSA's wordingAn overheating wiring harness with a direct risk of fire meets the critical threshold, and the interim remedy (restricting blower operation modes) confirms the manufacturer treats this as an active fire hazard rather than a speculative future risk.
Written for us by a language model from the manufacturer's filed text, which is quoted in full above. Where the two differ, the filing is the record and this is only our summary of it.
The fix, from the dealer bulletin
Source: NHTSA remedy instructions and dealer noticeThe advisory, as filed: “All affected VINs will be flagged as "OPEN" in VMI and cannot be sold until remedied.”
Read from NHTSA’s copy of the manufacturer’s dealer documents (manufacturer campaign Daimler 23V-100). The procedure itself is in the bulletin; a franchised dealer has the current copy on the manufacturer’s portal, and that copy governs. Working a lot or a fleet? Recall Watch carries this line on every VIN it checks: remedy status, hours, stop-sale.

None of the vehicles this campaign names has a page on WhichTrim: the catalogue covers the cars, trucks and SUVs the EPA certifies from 2016 on, and these vehicles fall outside it — older model years, or motorhomes, trailers, buses, motorcycles and chassis cabs the EPA does not rate. The campaign record above is complete as filed, and whether one specific vehicle is included is settled by its VIN. Other campaigns on vehicles without a page here →

A recall applies to a build range, so year, make and model cannot settle it. Type the VIN and the WhichTrim recall report checks this campaign’s build window and engine against it.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573Is Daimler 23V-100 the same recall as 23V486000?
Yes. Daimler 23V-100 is the number Jayco, Inc uses for this campaign in its own paperwork and in the letter it sends owners. 23V486000 is the number NHTSA files it under. One recall, two references — dealers and service departments generally quote the manufacturer's.
Does this recall repair cost anything?
No. Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety defect or a compliance failure at no charge, for vehicles up to 15 years old measured from the date of first sale. A dealer that asks you to pay for a recall repair is in the wrong.
How do I know whether my vehicle is included?
By VIN, not by model year. The manufacturer files a build range with NHTSA and only vehicles inside it are covered, so two identical-looking cars from the same year can differ. NHTSA's own lookup checks a VIN against the manufacturer's list.
What if the repair is not available yet?
It happens, and often. Manufacturers must notify owners when a defect is found even if the parts or the software are not ready, then notify them a second time once the remedy exists. The remedy filed for this campaign is described above.
What did the manufacturer say was wrong?
The problem, risk and fix quoted on this page are the manufacturer's own words as filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR Part 573. WhichTrim does not paraphrase them.
Who started this recall?
NHTSA's record credits the manufacturer. A recall can begin with the manufacturer's own testing, with a defect investigation, or with a compliance test against a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.
