NHTSA recall 16V561000
Seats · Jayco, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Alante and Precept motorhomes manufactured October 13, 2014, to June 23, 2016. The affected vehicles have a driver seat that may loosen and detach from the seat base as a result of the seat having been swiveled around.
Why it matters: If the seat detaches from the seat base while vehicle is being driven, the operator may lose control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Jayco has notified owners, and dealers will install a jam nut on top of the seat base nut, free of charge. The recall began on August 16, 2016.
