Niland seniors forced from homes after county shuts off RV park power

Imperial County Code Enforcement ordered a total power shutdown at Lark Spa Mobile Home & RV Park in Niland, California, during an extreme heatwave, citing a code violation for an unpermitted electrical repair. The outage has left dozens of low-income seniors and disabled residents without air conditioning, forcing many to abandon their trailers or rely on generators costing up to $75 per day. County officials rejected requests for a temporary variance, and the utility company stated it is not responsible for the outage.

Winnebago and Grand Design Recall Same Fire Hazard, Neither Built It

Grand Design RV recalled 448 of its 2026–2027 Lineage travel trailers on July 10, and Winnebago recalled 134 of its 2027 Navion and View motorhomes on July 14. Both recalls stem from a MaxxAir N-Series Maxxfan rooftop ventilation fan whose printed circuit board can overheat and cause a fire. Neither company manufactured the fan; it was sourced from a supplier. The recalls are filed by the vehicle manufacturers as required by federal law.
