EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER
- The defect
- Thor Motor Company (TMC) is recalling certain 2023-2026 Axis, Chateau, Four Winds, 2023-2025 Coleman, Echelon, Freedom Elite, Geneva, Outlaw, Quantum, Vegas, 2025 Eddie Bauer, Freedom Traveler, Pasadena, and 2024-2025 Magnitude motorhomes. The slide-Out room can be deployed without the parking brake engaged, allowing the room to extend while the vehicle is in motion.
- What it can cause
- A slide-Out room that extends unexpectedly increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the park brake harness, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 28, 2025. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000325.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to 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 4,251 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 73% of the 18,518 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Thor Motor Coach vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 26 times before this, most recently in September 2024 as 24V666000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 4 other recalls published here: 25V709000 (equipment), 25V301000 (structure), 24V441000 (structure), 22V611000 (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 Thor Motor Coach with NHTSA on March 20, 2025 as campaign 25V171000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
