NHTSA campaign 16V638000 · Part 573 safety recall report

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc.: Visibility › Rearview Mirrors/Devices › Exterior

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Sep 2, 2016 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 36. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.

The defect

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain model year 2017 Allegro Bus motorhomes manufactured April 12, 2016, to June 21, 2016. Due to insufficient holding power of the mirror arm swivel mechanism, the passenger side mirror could move while the vehicle is in motion.

The risk

If the mirror does not stay in position, it can reduce the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will install a retrofit kit to secure the passenger mirror swivel arm mechanism, free of charge. The recall began on September 9, 2016. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256- 356-8661. Tiffin's number for this recall is TIF-103.

What this page is, and what to do next

A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.

This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 16V638000.
