2013 Spartan K2 & 2013 Spartan K3 + 1 more recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Spartan Motors Chassis is recalling certain model year 2013 K2, K3, and MM motorhome chassis, manufactured July 23, 2012, through November 7, 2012 and equipped with an independent front suspension that has the ABS modulator valve mounted in a forward position. The front brake hoses or the ABS sensor cable may be damaged as a result of contact with the swaybar.
💥 The risk
Damaged brake hoses will result in insufficient air being applied to the front brake chambers. Lack of air to the front brake may increase stopping distances. Damage to the ABS sensor cable may disable the ABS. Either condition may increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
🔧 The fix
Spartan will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. The recall began December 20, 2012. Owners may contact Spartan at 1-517-543-6400.
