2007 Newmar Mountain Aire DP recalls

Recall 11V-235: Equipment

Reported Apr 12, 2011 · 5,486 vehicles affected · NEWMAR CORPORATION

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.

After some period of use, certain trailer hitches may develop stress fractures due to sharp radii and /or tool marking.

Reported Jun 19, 2006 · 2 vehicles affected · NEWMAR CORPORATION

Problem: On certain motor homes equipped with spartan steering columns, the steering column has an incorrect bushing that does not properly limit the travel of the steering column.

Risk: The reduced engagement of the column tubing may limit the driver's capability to control the steering increasing the risk of a crash.

Visibility/Wiper · at 19,565 miles · reported Apr 24, 2021
Windshield wiper strips out and has done so more than once, of course this happened while in heavy traffic with heavy rain on the drivers side. I was able to eventually safely pull to the side of the roadway and reattach it stay together until I go to next town. But you here of this happening to far to many n motorhome owners and it is very dangerous.
Visibility · at 4,000 miles · reported Aug 17, 2008
Heavy rainstorm, wipers running on high speed. Passenger side wiper stops moving & impedes the drivers side wipers movement. Visibility drops to nearly zero, and makes getting to a safe place to stop very difficult. Rv manufacturer replaced the wiper motor/shaft & wiper arm as the splines were completely wiped smooth. Happened again a year later. Same scenario, same wiper. Same damage to the wiper motor shaft splines & wiper arm splines.
