Details

What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, the flexible exhaust tube may tear allowing hot exhaust to blow against other components or materials.

Why it matters: If hot exhaust gas contacts other components or materials, it can increase the risk of a fire.

The fix: Newmar will notify owners, and spartan dealers will inspect the alignment of the tubes, correcting them and replacing any that are torn. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on August 29, 2016.
