The short version

Thor Motor Coach reported a problem with the front assembly recliner. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The seat recliner mechanisms may be missing the third pawl required for seat back strength, resulting in a loose seat back. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 202, "Head Restraints" and 207, "Seating Systems."

WHY IT MATTERS

Improperly assembled recliner mechanism may have reduced strength and may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

WHAT TO DO

Take it to a dealer — they will inspect the seat structures and replace them, as necessary, free of charge.
