Summary

Newell Coach Corp. "Newell" is recalling certain 2017-2020 P50 motorcoaches. The passenger side wiper arm linkage may be too short, possibly causing the wiper to malfunction and rotate in a downward position.

Consequence

If the wiper rotates in a downward position, visibility through the right side of the windshield may be reduced, increasing the risk of crash.

Remedy

Newell will notify owners, and dealer will inspect and replace the wiper linkage with one that has been properly aligned, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began June 18, 2019. Owners may contact Newell customer service at 1-888-363-9355.
