Details

What's wrong: On certain motor homes built on spartan k2 and mm 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: Dealers will replace the steering support bracket free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule.
