Defect description
Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain 2020 Mountain Aire motorhomes built on a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) chassis. The low beam bulbs may not remain illuminated when the high beam bulbs are activated.
Safety risk
If both beams are not illuminated together as intended, the driver may have reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Newmar will notify owners, and DTNA dealers will repair as necessary to ensure the low beam bulb will illuminate along with the high beam bulb, free of charge. The recall began January 6, 2020. Owners may contact Newmar customer service at 1-800-731-8300 or DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712.
