Description

DEFECT #2 - SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC
Posted on: 2016-06-24
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.

Additionally, following drivers may be confused by the motorhome's actions, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action

Posted on: 2018-02-01
Description
Entegra coach (entegra) is recalling certain 2015-2016 aspire and 2017-2018 insignia motorhomes built on a spartan chassis. The air brake supply reservoir is less than 12x the combined volume of air for all service brake chambers. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 121, air brake systems.
