Recall Summary:
Entegra coach is recalling model year 2009-2010 motorhomes equipped with certain haldex quick release valves (qrv). The rubber diaphragm inside the qrv may experience delamination resulting in significant levels of air pressure leakage past and/or through the diaphragm, or the development of a bubble in the diaphragm which may trap air pressure in the valve and not allow the service brakes to release.
How to Fix:
Entegra is working with spartan and will inspect and replace all affected qrvs free of charge. Please also see spartan's defect report 09v-184. The safety recall began on October 12, 2009. Owners may contact spartan at 800-543-4277 and entegra at -800-945-4787.
