- Defect:
- Coachmen is recalling 961 my 2005-2007 cross country, sportscoach elite, my 2005-2006 cross country se, and my 2006 sportscoach encore class a motor homes built using inline power steering filters, part no. 14-16829-000. the filter can plug due to failure of the screen adhesion to the filter housing causing a rise in return line pressure. this can lead to hose separation from the filter or steering gear fitting resulting in a sudden loss of steering fluid and power assist.

- Sudden loss of steering assist without warning involving a motor home could be a problem for certain drivers increasing the risk of a crash.
