Defect description

Entegra Coach (Entegra) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Aspire vehicles manufactured July 14, 2014, to January 15, 2016 and built on Daimler Trucks North America motorhome chassis. On these vehicles, equipped with a heavier, adjustable foot pedal, the brake activation signal to certain towed devices may not deactivate when the motorhome service brakes are released.

Safety risk

If the brake activation signal to a towed device remains active when the motorhome chassis service brakes are released, the brakes on a towed device may remain engaged depending on brake configuration of the trailer. Additionally, following drivers may be confused by the motorhome's actions, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Daimler Trucks will notify owners, and their dealers will modify the affected brake assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2016 . Owners may contact Entegra customer service at 1-800-945-4787 or Daimler Trucks customer service at 1-800-547-0712.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
