Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
Loose or broken suspension fasteners can allow the rear-drive axle to shift out of place, increasing the risk of a crash.
Shyft Group is recalling certain 2020-2022 Spartan RV Chassis K1 and K2 recreational vehicles.
The rear suspension mounting fasteners that attach the rear-drive axle to the rear suspension may not have been tightened properly, which could allow the fasteners to loosen or break.
