Entegra Recalls Aspire and Insignia Motorhomes Due to Brake Reservoir Defect

Entegra is recalling 2015-2018 Aspire and Insignia motorhomes because the air brake supply reservoir is undersized, which may reduce braking performance and increase crash risk.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect in the braking system that reduces braking performance and increases the risk of a crash, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Entegra Coach is recalling certain 2015-2016 Aspire and 2017-2018 Insignia motorhomes built on a Spartan chassis. The recall affects 393 vehicles. The defect involves the air brake supply reservoir, which is less than 12 times the combined volume of air for all service brake chambers. This design fails to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."

The undersized reservoir may provide an insufficient air supply to properly operate the brakes during repetitive brake applications. This condition reduces braking performance and increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Spartan service centers will replace the current air supply reservoir with one that has twice the capacity, free of charge. The recall began on February 16, 2018. Owners may contact Spartan Chassis at 1-800-543-4277 or Entegra customer service at 1-800-517-9137. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
