SEATS
- The defect
- Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain 2022 Allegro Bus, Phaeton, Allegro Red 360, and Zephyr motorhomes. The pedestal mounting plate on the driver's seat may be improperly welded, which can cause the plate to separate and the seat assembly to loosen or detach.
- What it can cause
- A loose or detached seat assembly increases the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect for a missing weld and replace the pedestal, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed March 22, 2024. Owners may contact Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661. Tiffin's number for this recall is TIF-135.
- 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 507 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 50% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 4 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, 4 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in November 2021, 2 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 10 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V566000 (electrical system), 24V260000 (equipment), 23V643000 (equipment), 23V406000 (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 January 23, 2024 as campaign 24V036000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
