EquipmentApr 12, 2011 · NHTSA campaign 11V235000 · 5,486 vehicles

Problem: Newmar is recalling certain recreational vehicles equipped with 1200 series norcold refrigerators. The population of refrigerators being addressed contains either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected in order to prevent a potential fire. The response times of the sensor algorithm and thermal switch devices to stop power are not sufficient.

Risk: The sensing algorithm or thermal switch installed to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected due to a possible hydrogen gas leak may not shut off in sufficient time to prevent a fire.

Fix: Newmar is working with norcold to identify and notify any affected owners. Owners will be instructed to contact norcold dealers to receive the remedy free of charge. Please see norcold's defect report 10e-049 for additional information. The safety recall began on march 28, 2011. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101.

Steering:columnJun 19, 2006 · NHTSA campaign 06V217000 · 2 vehicles

Problem: On certain motor homes equipped with spartan steering columns, the steering column has an incorrect bushing that does not properly limit the travel of the steering column.

Risk: The reduced engagement of the column tubing may limit the driver's capability to control the steering increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Dealers will replace the bushing to increase the length of the engagement between the steering column tubes free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners may contact newmar at 574-773-7791.
