What's wrong

Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 Allegro Open Road motorhomes manufactured April 1, 2015, to September 16, 2016. The affected vehicles have a tow hitch with a weight capacity sticker that may indicate an incorrect weight capacity.

The risk

If the hitch is loaded to the weight on sticker, the hitch may fail and the towed vehicle can separate from the motorhome, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Tiffin will notify owners, and send them a corrected label to replace the incorrect label, free of charge. The recall began on October 31, 2016. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661. Tiffin's number for this recall is TIF-104.

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.
