Details

What's wrong: When switching from using the low beam headlights to the high beam headlights, the low beam headlights go out when the intention was to have both beams illuminate.

Why it matters: Without the low beams also illuminated when the high beams are on, the driver may have reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Newmar will notify owners, and dealers will correct the vehicles so that the low beam stays illuminated when the high beam is switched on, free of charge. The recall began on May 18, 2018.
