Newmar Corporation is recalling certain 2007-2008 Mountain Aire, Essex, and Dutch Star motorhomes manufactured between October 2006 and July 2007. These vehicles have tag axles with wheel bearings that may be adjusted too tight, which can cause the bearings to overheat and create an increased risk of a wheel end fire.
Owners should contact Newmar customer service at 1-800-731-8300 or Spartan customer service at 1-800-543-4277 to arrange service. Spartan dealers will inspect the wheel end bearings for proper end play and replace them if necessary at no charge. Newmar's recall number is 15V-548.
