NHTSA recall 17V239000
Equipment, Trailer Hitches · Thor Motor Coach
Details
What's wrong: The weight rating labels for the tow hitches on these vehicles indicate a 10,000lb weight capacity when the actual hitch capacity is 8,000lbs.
Why it matters: If the hitch is loaded to the capacity on the label, the hitch may damage the motorhome or the hitch may disconnect from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of the crash.
The fix: Tmc will notify owners and provide them corrected labels, free of charge. The recall began on May 22, 2017. Owner's may contact tmc customer service at 1-877-500-1020.
