What's wrong: On certain class a motor homes built on a spartan chassis, the steering gear support bracket has the potential to fail when subject to the repetitive forces of static steering conditions.

Why it matters: Loss of steering control could occur increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Spartan chassis is conducting this recall (please see 06V156000) and will replace the steering support bracket free of charge.
