The short answer

NHTSA received Spartan Motors USA’s report on Sep 1, 2015. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 28, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

If the wheel bearings overheat, there is an increased risk of a wheel end fire.

Spartan Motors USA (Spartan) is recalling certain 2007-2008 MM and K2 motorhome chassis manufactured March 07, 2006, to June 22, 2006.

The affected vehicles have tag axles with wheel bearings that may be adjusted too tight, resulting in their overheating during use.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
