NHTSA recall campaign
13V531000
What was wrong
Defect
Spartan Motors Inc. (Spartan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 K2, K3, MetroStar, and MM motor homes and one emergency response chassis. Castle nuts for the steering linkage ball joint fasteners, which mount to bell cranks, may be loose. If the castle nuts become completely loose, the steering linkage may separate from the bell cranks without warning.
Risk
This may cause a loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Spartan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the castle nuts and tighten them as necessary. The recall began on December 9, 2013. Owners may contact Spartan at 1-517-543-6400. Spartan's recall campaign number is 13025.
