04- Electrical#2017302
4 units affected
On certain motorhomes equipped with a Prestolite starter, the retaining ring on the starter shaft may break without warning, allowing the shaft to extend beyond the starter motor. The motor could continue to be energized and overheat or eventually be subject to an over current condition, which would increase the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Spartan service centers will replace the starter.
- Suspension#2017158
12 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the ball joints on the independent front suspension may be loose. Over time, if not detected, the loose ball joints could separate, which could affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Spartan service centers will remove, clean, apply thread locker, reinstall and torque the ball joints as necessary.
- Structure#2017149
48 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the step tread of the interior entry steps may have been insufficiently supported during assembly. This could result in the step tread to potentially become unstable, which could cause a person to fall, resulting in injury. Correction: Dealers will install new screws to properly secure the horizontally mounted plywood cleats to the plywood supporting structure of the interior entry steps.
- Brakes#2016480
47 units affected
On certain motorhomes equipped with a heavier weight adjustable straight foot pedal, the brake activation signal to the motorhome’s brake lights and to certain towed devices may not deactivate when the motorhome service brakes are released. This may cause the motorhome brake lights to potentially remain illuminated, which would result in the following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions. Additionally, if the brakes of a towed vehicle were to remained engaged, it could result in a loss of vehicle control. Both of these conditions could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facilities will replace the torsion spring of the pedal assembly with an improved spring.
