Entegra Motorhomes Recalled for Unstable Electric Entry Steps

Entegra is recalling specific 2008-2011 motorhomes because a bolt on the electric steps may fracture, causing the steps to become unstable and increasing the risk of injury.

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 in vehicle entry steps that may become unstable, creating a risk of injury, but no injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Entegra Coach is recalling certain model year 2008 and 2010-2011 Aspire and Anthem motorhomes, 2008 and 2010 Cornerstone motorhomes, 2008 Emblem and Alante motorhomes, and 2009-2011 Insignia motorhomes. The affected vehicles are equipped with certain Lippert-brand Coachstep Double aElectric Steps. These steps use a bolt to attach the fan gear assembly to the steps. This bolt may fracture, allowing the fan gear to disengage from the steps. As a result, the steps may not remain in the expected position and may become unstable.

Unstable entry and exit steps increase the risk of injury. Entegra will notify owners, and dealers will install a retainer bracket on the double step assemblies. On the trip step assemblies, the Coachstep linkage Assembly will be replaced and a retainer bracket will be installed. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
