The short version

Newmar Corporation reported a problem with the exterior lighting headlights. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The low beam headlights do not also illuminate as intended when the high beam headlights are activated, reducing the driver's visibility. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

WHY IT MATTERS

If the driver has reduced visibility, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Newmar will notify owners, and Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facilities will reprogram the Freightliner chassis module, free of charge.
