| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My previous complaint to odi # 10126325, i did not know that a nhtsa safety recall # 03v-488 had been issued for my motorhome. i contacted newmar in may, 2005 that i was concerned about the safety of my motorhome as explained in previous complaint. although, i have had my motorhome checked repeatedly, no one ever checked to determine if the recall had been done. i have no stickers on my motorhome that would show that the work had been done. but the paperwork from freightliner says that the work had been done. a mechanic in del rio texas, showed me the steering stop bolts were missing the nodule and were hitting the axle and the steering was decreased. i understand this in return effects the steering gear box. also other steering components can be effected. i believe that this has happened. the recalled was 12/03 and was suppose to be corrected 01/04 before the motorhome was sold in florida to the original owner. i spoke with newmar customer relations. i understand that they do not know anything about the recall. since i am not familiar with recall procedure, i do not know who the recall would go to if the motorhome was setting on the lot of independence rv dealer in florida. *nm |
