2009–2013 Tiffin Zephyr & 2009–2010 Tiffin BUS recall: speed control

⚠️ What's wrong

Tiffin is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 BUS, as well as certain 2009-2011 and 2013 Zephyr recreational vehicle chassis equipped with an electronic control module, part number 2791-NN2E-001 or 2791-NN2E-002. When the brake is applied, the cruise control may not cancel. Additionally, these vehicles may exhibit an inadvertent, moderate increase in vehicle speed until the vehicle reaches its governed speed after the cruise control is set.

💥 The risk
