Service bulletin 21V258
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
The Shyft Group Inc. (Spartan Chassis) has decided that a defect relating to motor vehicle safety exists in specific motorhomes built on Spartan chassis (NHTSA #21V 214). In response, Newmar Corporation is issuing recall NHTSA # 21V 258. On certain motorhomes, the steering output shaft inside the steering column may be too short and could disengage from the steering input shaft during a full telescope of the steering column/wheel. A disengagement of the steering output shaft from the steering input shaft could result in a loss of steering control increasing the risk of a crash.
