  3. Shaft pitman (steering)

    NHTSA 08V027000 Reported 1,292 vehicles potentially affected TIFFIN MOTORHOMES, INC.

    Certain motor homes built on freightliner chassis and equipped with zf model 8018 steering gears may have been assembled with the incorrect recirculating ball spacer. This could potentially allow the recirculating balls to escape from the recirculating ball circuit resulting in a loss of steering.

    Remedy: Tiffin is working with freightliner to replace the steering gear free of charge (please see 07v343 and 07e049). Owners may contact freightliner at 1-800-547-0712 or tiffin at 256-356-8661.

  4. Electrical system

    NHTSA 05V307000 Reported 265 vehicles potentially affected TIFFIN MOTORHOMES, INC.

    On certain motor homes containing a 50 amp transfer switch built by intellitec, the material used for the wire lugs was changed from nickel plated to copper lugs. The copper lugs are softer than the nickel plated and do not retain the torque of the screw that clamps the wire connector.

    Remedy: Dealers will replace the changeover box. The recall began on july 21, 2005. Owners may contact tiffin at 1-256-356-8661.

Checking a specific 2006 Tiffin Allegro Bus

How do I know if my 2006 Tiffin Allegro Bus has an open recall?

Enter your 17-character VIN above. The VIN is on the driver's side dashboard (visible through the windshield), the driver's door jamb sticker, and your registration or insurance card. The check runs against NHTSA's live database and tells you which campaigns list your vehicle. 4 campaigns currently list the 2006 Tiffin Allegro Bus; your car may already have been repaired under some of them.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Under federal law, manufacturers must fix safety recalls at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from the date of sale to the first owner. Contact any authorised Tiffin dealer with your VIN and the NHTSA campaign number (for example 05V307000).

What is the difference between a recall and a complaint?

A recall is a safety campaign filed by the manufacturer or ordered by NHTSA, with a defined defect and remedy. A complaint is a report an owner sent to NHTSA; it is not verified, but patterns of complaints are what trigger NHTSA investigations and, eventually, recalls.
