What NHTSA recorded

Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain model year 2015 Essex motorhomes manufactured March 13, 2014, to November 13, 2014, built on Spartan chassis. Due to the steering column having inadequate spline engagement at the steering gear, the steering shaft may disconnect or slip.

Possible consequence

If the steering shaft disconnects or slips there would be a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy
