NHTSA recall 18V328000
Trailer Hitches · Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Tiffin motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain 2013-2018 Allegro Open Road motorhomes. Insufficient strength of the frame rail may allow the tow hitch to detach from the motorhome.
Why it matters: If the hitch detaches, the tow vehicle would not be connected to the motorhome, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will install an insert plate to strengthen the frame rail, free of charge. Tiffin issued owners an interim notification on May 31, 2018. The recall began on July 24, 2018.
