Red Rose Shared Ride recently had a fire under the hood on a 2016 F450 van with a Champion body. The cause was traced to positive and negative battery cables added by Champion. The negative cable did not have sufficient support and chaffed through the positive cable. Other vans in the fleet showed signs of chaffing. The attached photo shows the cables on another van. We don’t have a permanent fix from Ford or Champion yet, but recommend fleets with similar vans inspect them.Battery Cables
