Details

What's wrong: The throttle circuit wires on the affected vehicles may not have been be twisted to cancel out electromagnetic interference, and as a result, interference may cause the throttle signal to be higher or lower than intended.

Why it matters: Unintended deceleration or acceleration can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Newmar will notify owners, and spartan dealers will install an overlay harness with twisted wires, free of charge. The recall began on December 1, 2016.
