Problem Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2017 Palazzo 36.1 and 36.3 motorhomes. The Federal certification label on these vehicles indicates an incorrect front tire rim size. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification." Risk If the front rim is replaced based on the incorrect label information, it can cause an unsafe driving condition, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix TMC will notify owners and will provide corrected replacement labels, free of charge. The recall began on June 2, 2017. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-500-1020. TMC's number for this recall is RC000133.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. RC000133 is the number Thor assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 17V238000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
