2014 NEWMAR DUTCH STAR; 2016 NEWMAR DUTCH STAR; 2015 NEWMAR DUTCH STAR
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Newmar Corporation is recalling certain 2014-2016 Dutch Star motorhomes built on Freightliner chassis that were manufactured between June 5, 2014, and October 16, 2015. The steering box in these vehicles may have been manufactured with an incorrect spacer of insufficient height, which can cause excessive play in the connection between the steering wheel and front axle, potentially leading to sudden loss of steering control and increasing crash risk.
Owners should not drive their vehicles until they have been inspected. Freightliner dealers will inspect and replace the steering box if necessary at no charge. Owners can contact Freightliner customer service at 1-800-547-0712 or Newmar customer service at 1-800-731-8300 (recall number 16V 366) to arrange an inspection.
