Newmar Corporation: 2023 Dutch Star Motorhomes Recalled for Brake Failure Risk

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Newmar Corporation is recalling 32 of its 2023 Dutch Star motorhomes because the adjustable brake pedal may hit the dashboard panel. This contact can cause the brakes to engage unexpectedly, leading them to overheat and fail while driving. Dealers will fix this issue by trimming the dash panel to create more space for the brake pedal at no cost to owners.

Risk

The brake pedal can get stuck against the dash panel, causing the brakes to stay partially applied. This results in extreme heat buildup that can lead to total brake failure, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.

  1. Check your vehicle's registration or VIN to confirm if it is a 2023 Newmar Dutch Star motorhome.
  2. Contact Newmar's customer service department at 1-800-731-8300 to schedule a free repair.
  3. Bring your motorhome to an authorized dealer, who will trim the dash panel to provide the necessary clearance for the adjustable brake pedal.
  4. If you have additional questions or concerns, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
