# 22V-166 recall: Newmar

These are official NHTSA recalls. A model year on a campaign is not proof a VIN is included. Owner reports are not included.

**Campaign:** 22V-166
**Manufacturer:** Newmar Corporation
**Component:** STEERING:CRITICAL FASTENERS
**Filed:** March 17, 2022
**NHTSA:** https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=22V166

## The problem

Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain 2021-2022 New Aire, Essex, King Aire, Ventana, Kountry Star, London Aire, Dutch Star and Mountain Aire motorhomes.  The upper bolt connecting the steering column may not have been properly tightened, causing the nut to loosen off the bolt, potentially resulting in loss of steering control.

## The safety risk

Loss of steering control increases the risk of a crash.

## The remedy

Dealers will inspect and tighten the upper and lower bolts as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on May 16, 2022.  Owners may contact Newmar's customer service at 1-800-731-8300.
