What this means for you

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (incorrect hose routing) that explicitly increases the risk of a fire, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Entegra Coach is recalling certain 2011-2012 and 2015-2016 Aspire motorhomes built on Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC) chassis. The recall involves 130 units where the power steering hose may be routed incorrectly.

The defect causes the hose to rub against the power stud on the starter motor, which can lead to electrical arcing and a power steering fluid leak. The presence of leaking power steering fluid combined with electrical arcing increases the risk of a fire.

Freightliner dealers will reroute the power steering hose to provide proper clearance free of charge. The recall began on May 1, 2018. Owners may contact Entegra customer service at 1-800-517-9137 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
