- The defect
- Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Cahaba motorhomes. The spare tire carrier and molle rack may be incorrectly installed on the rear van doors, which can cause them to detach while the vehicle is in transit.
- What it can cause
- A detached spare tire carrier and molle rack can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the hardware kit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 21, 2023. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661. Tiffin's number for this recall is TIF-129.
- 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.nhtsa.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 203 vehicles this is a small campaign: 61% 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 model years 2021 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Tiffin vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 22 times before this, most recently in October 2022 as 22V814000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 24V506000 (tires), 23V104000 (suspension), 22V291000 (electrical system).
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 April 26, 2023 as campaign 23V297000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
