What’s wrong with it?
Incorrect weight information can allow the vehicle to be overloaded, increasing the risk of a crash.
Newmar Corporation (Newmar) is recalling certain 2026 Freedom Aire motorhomes.
The Cargo Carrying Capacity (CCC) label may state an incorrect weight value.
As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, “Wheels and Rims - Other Than Passenger Cars.”

- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
