NHTSA Campaign 15V297000

EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER

Issued by Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. · Reported May 19, 2015 · 304 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc.(Tiffin) is recalling certain model year 2015 Allegro Red 36 QSA, Allegro Red 38 QBA, Phaeton 40 QBH, and Phaeton 40 QKH motorhomes manufactured April 22, 2014, to May 8, 2015. In the affected vehicles, moisture may enter the slide-out controller and cause the "switch out" connection to short, and cause the motorhome slide-out section to extend while the motorhome is moving.

Consequence

If the slide-out opens during transit, there is an increased risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will install a relay to disconnect the power source of the slide-out, free of charge. The recall began on June 16, 2015. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661.
