The problem
Entegra Coach (Entegra) is recalling certain 2019 Entegra Emblem and Vision motorhomes. When traveling at highway speeds, the windshield wiper arms may lift away from the windshield when the wiper speed setting is on high, decreasing the wiper's ability to clear the windshield. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 104, "Windshield Wiping and Washing Systems."
The risk
The driver's reduced visibility can increase the risk of a crash.

Entegra has notified owners, and dealers will replace the wiper system, free of charge. The recall began on July 30, 2018. Owners may contact Entegra customer service at 1-800-517-9137. Entegra's number for this recall is 9903403.
