Spartan Motors, Inc. (Spartan) is recalling certain model year 2014 Utilitmaster Walk-In Vans manufactured December 8, 2014, to January 23, 2015, and altered by Lippert Components. Due to inadequately torqued fasteners, the driveshaft may disconnect.
If the driveshaft disconnects there would be a loss of power delivery to the rear axle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Spartan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the torque of the driveshaft fasteners, tightening them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 8, 2015. Owners may contact Spartan customer service at 1-800-582-3484.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
