On certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner Chassis, if the headlight high beams are activated, only the high beam bulbs illuminate. The intention of the high beam function on the affected coaches is to have both the high beam and low beam bulbs illuminate together. Not having the required illumination of the road could reduce the driveru2019s visibility, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Newmar authorized service facilities will repair as necessary to ensure the low beam bulb will turn on along with the high beam bulb.
