Newell Coach Corp.: Visibility › Windshield Wiper/Washer › Linkages
Newell Coach Corp. reported this defect to federal regulators on May 17, 2019 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 89. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
Newell Coach Corp. (Newell) is recalling certain 2017-2020 P50 motorcoaches. The passenger side wiper arm linkage may be too short, possibly causing the wiper to malfunction and rotate in a downward position.
The risk
If the wiper rotates in a downward position, visibility through the right side of the windshield may be reduced, increasing the risk of crash.
The remedy
Newell will notify owners, and dealer will inspect and replace the wiper linkage with one that has been properly aligned, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began June 18, 2019. Owners may contact Newell customer service at 1-888-363-9355.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 19V379000.
