What's wrong?
The steering wheel on 2022-2023 Newmar Supreme Aire motorhomes fastens to a steering wheel adapter, then to the steering column. The column carries your turning input down into the steering system, so the front wheels respond when you turn the wheel. Cap screws under the steering wheel cover hold that connection tight.
On affected motorhomes, those cap screws can work loose during use. Once the screws loosen, the steering wheel can loosen from the adapter. If the adapter then separates from the steering column, the driver loses the ability to steer, which increases the risk of a crash.
The warning sign is a steering wheel that starts to feel loose while driving. If the wheel has extra movement or no longer feels firmly attached, treat that as the recall symptom and have the vehicle inspected before further use.
