2016 Newmar King Aire recall: body & structure
⚠️ What's wrong
Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain model year 2016 King Aire vehicles manufactured March 9, 2015, to September 14, 2015. The affected vehicles may have been manufactured without an emergency exit window over the driver's side dinette table.
💥 The risk
The absence of an exit window may delay or prevent exit from the vehicle in the event of an emergency, increasing the risk of injury.
🔧 The fix
Newmar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the window, and if necessary install egress window, free of charge. The recall began on December 2, 2015. Owners may contact Newmar customer service 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.)
