TIRES:VALVE
- The defect
- Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain 2021 Phaeton recreational vehicles. The valve stem stabilizer can become loose, allowing the valve stem extender to contact the wheel.
- What it can cause
- If the valve stem extender rubs on the wheel, it can cause a loss of tire pressure, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Tiffin will notify owners, and dealers will replace the valve stem stabilizer, free of charge. The recall began April 22, 2021. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661. Tiffin's number for this recall is TIF-114.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 37 vehicles this is a small campaign: 81% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2021, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2021, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 22V511000 (equipment), 21V680000 (seat belts), 21V783000 (electrical system), 21V545000 (fuel system, diesel).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. with NHTSA on March 18, 2021 as campaign 21V193000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
