The short version

Newmar Corporation reported a problem with the drum chamber. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The front brake chambers may contact the upper control arm of the independent front suspension. Continued contact may result in damage sufficient enough to prevent the full release of the brakes.

WHY IT MATTERS

As the brakes heat up, they may self-engage, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Spartan Motors will notify owners and repair the vehicles, free of charge.
