2004 Tiffin Allegro Problems

Owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA, grouped by component

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

report

From owner reports, verbatim

THIS VEHICLE IS A 32 FT MOTORHOME UPON RETURN FROM CAMPING AND ABOUT 5 MILES FROM HOME ON A SECONDARY ROAD TRAVELING ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR. STRUCK A BUMP IN THE ROAD WHICH SUDDENLY STARTED THE FRONT WHEELS AND STEERING TO OSCILLATE VIOLENTLY AT WHICH TIME I IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO SLOW AND JUST BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP THE OSCILLATION STOPPED. THE STEERING OSCILLATION CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AND WAS QUITE VIOLENT. DEATH WOBBLE.... THIS HAD ALSO HAPPENED THE PREVIOUS YEAR ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA IN DECEMBER 2012 WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. BOTH OCCASIONS THE INCIDENT HAPPENED AFTER HITTING A DEPRESSION OR BUMP IN THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TO A TRUCK SUSPENSION SHOP FOR SPRING AND ALIGNMENT REPAIR JUST PRIOR TO THE DECEMBER INCIDENT AND WAS RETURNED TO THAT ESTABLISHMENT UPON RETURN FROM FLORIDA IN FEBRUARY 2013 AND THE VEHICLE WAS CHECKED FOR ANY FRONT END PROBLEMS AND NOTHING WAS FOUND. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THERE IS NO REPAIR OR RECALL FOR THIS CONDITION WITH ALL THE COMMENTS AND VIDEO AVAILABLE. *TR
