Recent 2021 Newmar London Aire complaints

Owner reports filed with NHTSA, as written (personal details removed). Complaints are not verified by NHTSA.

Unknown or Other · reported Jan 30, 2023
The hydraulic steps on this motor home automatically extend and retract when the door is opened or closed. The steps on this unit failed to retract after closing the door, and as I drove away, the steps hit a fence post. They could just as easily hit a person or driving down the road hit another vehicle. There is no warning system on this vehicle to warn the steps did not function as designed, and they are not readily visible from the driver seat. My understanding is that this has happened to others.
