Summary
Tiffin is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2010 allegro and allegro bay recreational vehicles equipped with bosch hydraulic brakes. Hydraulic brake equipped motorhome chassis exposed to long periods of time of non-driving may experience diametrical brake caliper piston growth and reduced piston to bore clearance potentially leading to brake drag and overheating resulting in reduced brake performance.
Consequence
Reduced brake performance may lead to an increased risk of a crash.
Remedy
Tiffin will notify the owners, and authorized daimler trucks north america (dtna) dealers will inspect and, as necessary, replace the brake calipers free of charge. An interim notice was mailed to owners by dtna on August 6, 2012. Owners may contact dtna at 1-800-547-0712.

Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration’s vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236(TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.

Vehicles covered

As listed by NHTSA. A recall usually covers only some vehicles of each model and year, often a production date range.

Has your Tiffin been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Tiffin dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
