What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2013 Entegra Anthem, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

REFERENCE NHTSA RECALL 16V-313 AND PREVIOUS SUBMISSION 11344194. OUR MOTORHOME WITH A SPARTAN CHASSIS SUFFERED AN EXHAUST BELLOWS FAILURE EXACTLY DESCRIBED IN RECALL 16V-313. IT IS OF THE CORRECT VINTAGE AND TYPE DESCRIBED BY 16V-313. SPARTAN CHASSIS COMPANY REFUSES TO MAKE REPAIRS OR HONOR THE RECALL 16V-313. THEY CLAIM THAT OUR UNIT IS EXCLUDED FROM THIS RECALL YET WILL NOT EXPLAIN HOW OR WHY IT IS NOT COMPLIANT WITH THE RECALL. WE FIT WITHIN THE TIME, DATES AND VINS DESCRIBED. SPARTAN REFUSES TO EXPLAIN WHY THE RECALL IS NOT BEING HONORED DESPITE THE FAILURE BEING A PICTURE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF THE RECALL SITUATION. CAN YOU HELP ME GET AN ANSWER FROM THEM?
THE EXHAUST SYSTEM SEPARATED BETWEEN THE TURBO AND THE PARTICULATE FILTER ON THE CUMMINS DIESEL ENGINE. THIS IS IN A SPARTAN RV CHASSIS. THE HEAT FROM THE EXHAUST LEAK DUE TO THE FLEXIBLE EXHAUST BELLOWS CAUSED EXTENSIVE THERMAL DAMAGE. SEE NHTSA RECALL 16V-313 AS THAT RECALL DESCRIBES THE PROBLEM EXACTLY.
