2017 Tiffin Allegro BUS recall: windows, wipers & mirrors

⚠️ What's wrong

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain model year 2017 Allegro Bus motorhomes manufactured April 12, 2016, to June 21, 2016. Due to insufficient holding power of the mirror arm swivel mechanism, the passenger side mirror could move while the vehicle is in motion.

💥 The risk

If the mirror does not stay in position, it can reduce the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will install a retrofit kit to secure the passenger mirror swivel arm mechanism, free of charge. The recall began on September 9, 2016. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256- 356-8661. Tiffin's number for this recall is TIF-103.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
