Issue
On certain motorhomes, the brake pedal may not be equipped with a return spring. As a result, the pedal may not fully return when it is released. If this happens, the brake lights may stay on. If a trailer is connected to the motorhome, this could also cause the trailer brakes to remain on.
Safety Risk
Brake lights that stay on could cause other road users not to recognize when the vehicle is braking. This could increase the risk of a crash. Trailer brakes that do not release could also increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions
Newmar will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorhome to a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) authorized service facility to inspect the adjustable brake pedal assembly and install the missing return spring, if necessary.
