Steering

Summary: On certain motor homes and fire trucks, the steering gear assembly contains a spacer with incorrect dimensions. A spacer of insufficient height allows for excessive play in the return function of the recirculation balls and, as a consequence, there is a failure in the circulatory function of these balls.
Consequence: If the failure mode is allowed to continue, the final result will be interruption in the connection between the steering wheel and the wheels of the vehicle. The vehicle can no longer be steered and could result in a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the steering gear assembly free of charge. The recall began on August 23, 2007. Owners may contact spartan at 517-543-6400.
