Entegra has decided that certain Model Year 2017 โ 2018 Insignia and 2015-2016 Aspire Class A motorhomes fail to conform to the requirement of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 121, โAir Brake Systemsโ. Specifically, the combined volume of air in all service and supply reservoirs does not meet the 12X combined volume of air for all service brake changes as defined in S5.1.2.1.

The Recall remedy is for a qualified Spartan Service Center to replace the current supply reservoir (wet tank) which has a capacity of 500 cubic inches, with one that has capacity of 1000 cubic inches. The remedy may take up to 6 hours.
