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 12,285 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 81% of the 15,998 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 480. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Heartland vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 42 times before this, most recently in May 2022 as 22V294000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V710000 (electrical system), 22V591000 (equipment), 22V305000 (electrical system), 22V294000 (equipment).
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 Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC with NHTSA on June 17, 2022 as campaign 22V432000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
