What this recall means for you
Certain front suspension modules in these motorhomes have ball joints that can loosen and separate over time. When a ball joint separates, the driver can lose part of their steering control, which raises the risk of a crash.
If you own this motorhome, watch for any loss of steering control, unusual looseness or vibration in the steering, or sounds from the front end, and get the vehicle checked promptly. Check your VIN for open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
The repair is free. Authorized dealers will inspect, clean and secure the ball joint at no cost to you. You can also contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661 and reference recall number TIF-108.
