Summary:
      Entegra Coach "Entegra" is recalling certain model year 2015 Aspire vehicles manufactured October 24, 2013, to February 11, 2015.

Consequence:
      If the fasteners come loose, the stay rod may disconnect from the rear axle, resulting in a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy:
      Entegra will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fasteners using thread lock, tightening them in the proper sequence and with the required torque values, free of charge. The recall began on August 12, 2015. Owners may contact Entegra customer service at 1-800-945-4787.
