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 risk-of-harm product (reduced visibility increasing crash risk) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2017 Allegro Bus motorhomes manufactured between April 12, 2016, and June 21, 2016. The recall addresses a defect in the passenger side mirror arm swivel mechanism, which has insufficient holding power. This issue allows the mirror to move while the vehicle is in motion.

If the mirror does not stay in position, it can reduce the driver's visibility, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will install a retrofit kit to secure the passenger mirror swivel arm mechanism at no charge. The recall began on September 9, 2016. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
