Details

What's wrong: The exhaust pipe is mounted too close to the underside of the floor.

Why it matters: Melting of the insulation can occur, possibly resulting in a fire.

The fix: Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will attach a heat shield to the bottom of the floor and an insulating sock or blanket will be wrapped around the exhaust pipe. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on September 19, 2011.
