What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural defect that may prevent emergency egress, increasing the risk of injury, but no specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Newmar Corporation is recalling certain model year 2016 King Aire vehicles manufactured between March 9, 2015, and September 14, 2015. The recall involves 10 vehicles that may have been manufactured without an emergency exit window over the driver's side dinette table.

The absence of this exit window may delay or prevent occupants from exiting the vehicle in the event of an emergency, which increases the risk of injury. This defect is classified by NHTSA as a structural issue related to emergency escape and egress.

Newmar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the window and install an egress window if necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 2, 2015. Owners may contact Newmar customer service at 1-574-773-7791 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
