 Defect summaryNewmar corporation (newmar) is recalling certain model year 2012 essex and king aire motor homes manufactured december 15, 2010, through august 15, 2011 on a spartan motors chassis. These vehicles are equipped with ametek air pressure gauges that may exceed the air brake pressure accuracy requirements of plus or minus 7 percent. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard, no. 121, "air brake systems."
 Consequence summaryA low air pressure condition may appear safe to the driver, leaving the operator ignorant of the true condition of the vehicle's air brake system, increasing the risk of a crash.
