2014 Prime Time Spartan

Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

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.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

LEFT HOME FOR A WEEKEND TRIP TO BANDERA TEXAS WITH MY FIFTH WHEEL RV. CHECKED ALL TIRE PRESSURES PRIOR TO PULLING OUT TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE ALL AT MANFACTURE SPEC'S (80PSI) GOT APPROX. 40 MILES FROM HOME AND HAD A BLOW OUT ON THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. THIS WAS A REAL SURPRISE TO ME SINCE THE TIRES WERE BRAND NEW AND ONLY HAD LESS THAN 1500 MILES ON THEM. WHEN THE TIRE BLEW OUT IT CAUSED SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE SIDE OF THE RV. THESE TIRES APPEAR TO BE A VERY POOR QUALITY. I WAS TRAVELING WITH A FRIEND THAT HAS A NEW RV ALSO AND HAD A BLOW OUT ON THE WAY BACK FROM OUR WEEKEND TRIP. HE HAD THE SAME TIRES ON HIS RV AS I DID ON MINE. THE MANUFACTURE OF THE TIRE IS TOW MAX POWER KING 235/80R/16. I REALLY FEEL THEY NEED TO STOP PUTTING THESE TIRES ON RV'S SEEING THAT THE DON'T LAST. *TR

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. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
