💥 Crash riskNHTSA 09V254📅 Jul 7, 2009

2009–2010 Newmar Dutch Star DP & 2009 Newmar ALL Star ME + 5 more recall: brakes

⚠️ What's wrong

Newmar is recalling 63 model year 2009 and 2010 recreational vehicles manufactured between july 21, 2008 and april 22, 2009, equipped with certain haldex quick release valves (qrv). The rubber diaphragm inside the qrv may experience delamination resulting in significant levels of air pressure leakage past and/or through the diaphragm, or the development of a bubble in the diaphragm which may trap air pressure in the valve and not allow the service brakes to release.

💥 The risk

Malfunction of the air brake system could result in a vehicle crash.

🔧 The fix

Newmar will notify owners and spartan will provide a free remedy. The safety recall is expected to begin during july 2009. Owners may contact spartan chassis toll-free at 1-800-543-4277 or newmar at 1-574-773-7791.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
