What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Breeze motorhomes manufactured September 5, 2013, to September 30, 2015. The affected assemblies may have loose ball joints which could separate causing a loss of steering control.

The risk

A loss of steering control increases the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will correct the ball joint installation, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on October 30, 2015. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
