Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

report

From owner reports, verbatim

The driver's side wiper arm became loose and travelled around the driver's side front corner of the vehicle where it became stuck and motionless. The incident occurred during a rainstorm as I was passing a semi on I-95 going about 60 mph. The driver's vision was dangerously obscured by rain on that side of the windshield as it was not being removed by the stuck wiper blade. Passenger assistance was needed to avoid an accident while getting into a safer position to address the problem. I have read on the IRV2 Newmar Owner's Forum that this is not the first time such an incident has occurred. Evidently, the bolts that hold the wider arms in their correct position have a tendency to loosen causing the arm to travel to the side of the motorhome and become inoperable. A more effective mounting strategy would make operation of the wipers more reliable and the motorhome safer to drive in a rainstorm.

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
