What's wrong?

The International Thermal Research powered heater, listed as the ITR Fuel Heater or Oasis Heater, is installed on certain 2022-2023 Newmar Mountain Aire, Dutch Star, Essex, New Aire, Ventana, and Super Star motorhomes. Its fuel line carries diesel fuel to the heater so the heater receives fuel without leaking into the surrounding compartment.

On affected motorhomes, the heater has the wrong fuel line installed. That line can deteriorate and leak diesel fuel. A fuel leak near heater equipment raises the risk of a fire, especially if fuel reaches a hot surface or ignition source.

The warning signs listed for this recall are a diesel fuel smell or visible fuel around the heater or fuel line. If you smell diesel or see fuel, treat it as a sign that the line has begun to leak.

Who's affected?

Covers the 2022 and 2023 model years across Mountain Aire, Dutch Star, Essex, New Aire, Ventana, and Super Star, with the same ITR Fuel Heater/Oasis Heater parts tied to the equipment and diesel fuel-system components.

What's the safety risk?

A fuel leak near an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire. Treat a diesel fuel smell or any visible fuel leak as a reason to stop using the motorhome and call a Newmar dealer for guidance before moving it again. Repair is free at any franchised Newmar dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2022-2023 Newmar Mountain Aire, Dutch Star, Essex, New Aire, Ventana, or Super Star motorhome is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Newmar dealer to schedule the free fuel-line inspection and replacement that fixes the leak-prone powered-heater fuel line.
  3. Reference recall number 22V583 when you call, and bring the owner notice if Newmar mailed one to you.
  4. Avoid using the powered heater until the dealer confirms the correct fuel line is installed.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Newmar technician inspects the fuel line for the International Thermal Research powered heater and replaces it if the wrong hose is installed. The recall covers the new fuel hose, inspection, and labor at no cost to you. If you already paid for this fuel line repair before receiving the recall letter, contact Newmar customer service with your repair paperwork to request reimbursement for that earlier repair.
