Defect
Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Essex, 2020-2022 King Aire and London Aire motorhomes. A machining defect may cause pressure to build in the power steering pump and break the shaft seal, resulting in a loss of power steering assist.
Risk
A loss of power steering assist increases the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
On behalf of Newmar Corporation, Shyft Group will inspect the pump serial number, and replace the power steering pump if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 22, 2021. Owners may contact Newmar's customer service at 1-800-731-8300.
