2019-2020 Entegra Motorhome Recall 19V626: Steering Bolts

Recall 19V626 covers 101 2019-2020 Entegra motorhomes across five models for loose steering shaft bolts. Repair is free at any franchised Entegra dealer.

Entegra is recalling 101 2019-2020 Cornerstone, Insignia, Aspire, Reatta, and Anthem motorhomes because the upper and lower steering shaft bolts were not tightened enough, allowing the steering column shaft to come loose. A loose shaft can cause loss of steering control and raise crash risk; Entegra dealers will inspect and tighten the bolts free of charge.

What's wrong?

The steering shaft is the metal link between the steering column and the steering system that turns the front wheels. On affected 2019-2020 Entegra Cornerstone, Insignia, Aspire, Reatta, and Anthem motorhomes, the upper and lower steering shaft bolts hold that link tight so the driver's steering input stays connected to the wheels.

These bolts were not tightened enough on some motorhomes built during the affected production window. Entegra traced the problem to a period when the regular line worker for that station was absent and other workers covered the job. If the bolts loosen, the steering column shaft can come loose instead of staying fixed in position.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner finding a steering shaft nut or bolt loose in the cab is a direct sign that the motorhome needs inspection before more driving.

Who's affected?

Spans the Cornerstone, Insignia, Aspire, Reatta, and Anthem across the 2019 and 2020 model years, all tied to the same power steering system.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.

What's the safety risk?

A loose steering column shaft can lead to loss of steering control and increase the risk of a crash. If your VIN is included, schedule the steering shaft inspection and bolt tightening soon, and limit driving until the dealer checks it. Repair is free at any franchised Entegra dealer.

What should I do?

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, an Entegra technician inspects the upper and lower steering shaft bolts and tightens any bolts that are not secured correctly. The recall repair is free, including the inspection and any tightening needed on the steering column shaft hardware. Entegra has a general reimbursement plan on file. If you already paid for this same steering shaft bolt repair before the recall work, ask Entegra customer service or the dealer service desk how to submit documentation under that plan.
