Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

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.

Safety recallsA 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.

Latest Oct 31, 2022
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Tiffin issued the following recall for some models of their Allegro motorhomes. https://www.usatoday.com/recalls/automotive/NHTSA-22V273000/#:~:text=Tiffin%20Motorhomes%2C%20Inc.,seals%20in%20the%20hydraulic%20cylinders. The model I have is not included in the recall, but I am experiences the same problem, the slide-out extends while parked (or possibly while moving). I brought the unit in for repairs in May 2023 and picked the unit up in September 2023. Poulsbo RV confirmed the slide-out extends when parked, as it occurred on their lot as well. Poulsbo RV was in communication with Tiffin and Lippert regarding the issue. They claimed to have made appropriate repairs, and the work order shows that a solenoid failed and was replaced. Since the repair in September, the slide-out has extended twice while parked.

Manufacturer communications

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

MCD-009

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Stopped using the lights we had been using due to expense. Replaced with these, but these new lights have to be wired in instead of just clicking in. These are the instructions to wire in.

CSA-031

SUSPENSION

On your vehicle, the rear axle caliper bolts may be loose. If one or more bolts disengage, the caliper may damage the wheel resulting in a loss of tire pressure or the caliper may damage the brake lines causing brake fluid loss in one circuit, which may result in reduced brake system performance. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.

SB-65

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:OWNERS/SERVICE/OTHER MANUAL

It has come to our attention that certain 2022 and 2023 Allegro Open Road Motorhomes have the potential for the 8K front hollow rod jack legs to bend or deform under extreme side loads. Lippert Components Inc has issued a service bulletin to replace these certain 8K hollow rod jacks with updated solid rod jacks. The front jacks are not a serialized part, so all Allegros built between October 21, 2021, and July 31, 2022, should be inspected to determine if defective jacks are installed.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
