What this recall means for you
Certain Tiffin motorhomes may have sofa seat belts that were not installed correctly, so the anchorages may not hold.

If you own an affected vehicle, take it to an authorized dealer, where the seat belts will be inspected and repaired as needed at no cost. Owner notification letters were mailed October 29, 2021. You can also contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661 and reference recall TIF-118.
