ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

Issued by Newmar Corporation · Reported Dec 19, 2017 · 2,915 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain model year 2016-2018 Bay Star, Bay Star Sport, Canyon Star, Dutch Star, Essex, King Aire, London Aire, Mountain Aire, New Aire, Ventana and Ventana LE motorhomes. These vehicles may have a loose power connection at the Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS), possibly resulting in a build up of heat.

Consequence

The build up of heat in the wiring from the loose power connection can increase the risk of a fire.

Remedy

Newmar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the electrical connection at the ATS, tightening it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on February 5, 2018. Owners may contact Newmar customer service at 1-800-731-8300.
