The hazard
On certain motorhomes, a problem with brake pressure switch could cause the brake lamps to turn on without pressing the brake pedal.
Brake lamps that turn on without the brake pedal being pressed could cause others not to recognize when the motorhome is braking or not braking and increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
Newmar will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a Spartan Service Center to replace the brake pressure switch.
