Roadtrek Motorhomes Recall 2014 Models for Air Bag Wiring Defect

Roadtrek is recalling 335 model year 2014 motorhomes because electrical wiring under the front seats may damage, preventing the optional front thorax air bags from deploying in a crash.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a safety-critical component (air bags) that may fail to deploy, increasing injury risk in a crash, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Roadtrek Motorhomes Inc. is recalling certain model year 2014 CS Adventurous, E-Trek, RS Adventurous, SS Agile, and TS Adventurous vehicles. These vehicles were manufactured between September 18, 2013, and April 9, 2015, and are built on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Chassis. The recall affects 335 vehicles.

The defect involves electrical wiring connections located under the front seats that can become dislodged or damaged. This issue can prevent the optional front seat SH9 Thorax air bags from deploying. If the front thorax air bag fails to deploy in the event of a crash, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.

Roadtrek will notify owners, and dealers will modify the electrical connections free of charge. The recall began on August 20, 2015. Owners may contact Roadtrek customer service at 1-888-762-3873 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
