What this recall means for you
Some Avion Azure motorhomes may have an improperly placed weld on the underfloor bracket that holds the second-row seats. The bracket may break in a crash, which can cause the seats to move. The vehicles also do not meet the federal seat belt anchorage standard (FMVSS 210).
A seat that moves during a crash raises the risk of injury to people sitting in it. If your motorhome is affected, the owner notification will explain the details. The Avion Azure is an RV, so check whether your vehicle's VIN is included in the recall.
The repair is free. Dealers will replace the brackets at no charge. Contact RV Factory customer service at 1-844-284-6678, extension 106, and check your VIN for open recalls.
