2007 Newmar ALL Star ME recalls
Recall 11V-235: Equipment
Problem: Newmar is recalling certain recreational vehicles equipped with 1200 series norcold refrigerators. The population of refrigerators being addressed contains either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected in order to prevent a potential fire. The response times of the sensor algorithm and thermal switch devices to stop power are not sufficient.
Risk: The sensing algorithm or thermal switch installed to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected due to a possible hydrogen gas leak may not shut off in sufficient time to prevent a fire.
Fix: Newmar is working with norcold to identify and notify any affected owners. Owners will be instructed to contact norcold dealers to receive the remedy free of charge. Please see norcold's defect report 10e-049 for additional information. The safety recall began on march 28, 2011. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101.
Recall 08V-596: Trailer Hitches
Problem: Newmar is recalling 913 my 2007-2009 all star me, dutch star dp, my 2007-2008 kountry star dp, my 2007 mountain aire dp, and my 2009 dutch aire dp and ventana dp motor homes built on spartan chassis and equipped with putnam hitches. After some period of use, certain trailer hitches may develop stress fractures due to sharp radii and /or tool marking.
Risk: Fractures in the suspect hitches may result in hitch separation, potentially resulting in injury and/or property damage.
Fix: Newmar is working with spartan who will replace the trailer hitch free of charge (Please see 08v567). Owners may contact spartan at 1-517-543-6400 or newmar at 1-574-773-7791.
Recall 07V-354: Engine and Engine Cooling
Problem: On certain motor homes built on spartan mm chassis with cummins isl cm850 diesel engines, the connecting rod contains a machining defect in the wrist pin bushing of the rod that could cause a seizure of the piston pin.
Risk: If allowed to progress, this can lead to engine failure with the possibility of the rod rupturing the lock cavity, spilling oil and debris onto the roadway increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Fix: Newmar is working with spartan and cummins to recalibrate the engine control module and enhance the engine protection system enabling it to provide early detection of the failure mode and avoid more serious engine damage and resultant safety hazard. Cummins will also install a new valve cover with a crankcase pressure sensor free of charge (Please see 07e033). Owners may contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 , spartan at 517-543-6400, or newmar at 1-574-773-7791.
