 Defect summaryNewmar corporation (newmar) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 dutch star, mountain aire, essex, and 2015-2016 london aire vehicles manufactured march 27, 2013, to october 16, 2015 and built on a freightliner chassis. On certain recreational vehicles built with a heavier, adjustable foot pedal, the brake activation signal to certain towed devices may not deactivate when the service brakes are released.
 Consequence summaryIf the brake activation signal to a towed device remains active when the motorhome chassis service brakes are released, the brakes on a towed device may remain engaged depending on brake configuration of the trailer. As a result, the brakes would drag and possibly overheat potentially resulting in a fire. Additionally, following drivers may be confused by the motorhome's actions, increasing the risk of a crash.
 Corrective actionNewmar will notify owners, and freightliner dealers will modify the affected assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on may 26, 2016. Owners may contact freightliner/daimler trucks north america llc at 1-800-547-0712 or newmar customer service at 1-800-731-8300. Newmar's number for this recall is 16v-204.
