SUSPENSION:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Shyft Group is recalling certain 2023 Spartan K2 RV chassis. The fasteners attaching the front and rear suspension to the chassis frame may have insufficient strength.
- What it can cause
- The fasteners can break, allowing the suspension to shift and increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Shyft Group will replace the fasteners, free of charge. All vehicles were repaired by November 21, 2022. Owners may contact Shyft Group customer service at 1-800-582-3454.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 4 vehicles this is a small campaign: 96% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Spartan vehicles have been recalled over the suspension 25 times before this, most recently in October 2021 as 21V776000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V114000 (fuel system, diesel), 24V052000 (steering), 23V062000 (electrical system), 22V785000 (service brakes, air).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Shyft Group with NHTSA on October 20, 2022 as campaign 22V789000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
