Service bulletin 19V 197
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
Daimler Trucks North America LLC has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in specific motorhomes built on Freightliner chassis (NHTSA # 18V 913). On certain motorhomes, the steering and tie rod arm bolts that join the steering and tie rod arm to the knuckle may not have accurate torque specification data. Without torque data, DTNA cannot verify that the bolts are properly torqued to specification. In response, Newmar is releasing recall NHTSA 19V 197.
