What NHTSA recorded

Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Tuscany motor homes manufactured July 28, 2014, to July 27, 2015.

Remedy

TMC will notify owners, and Freightliner Custom Chassis dealers will inspect and replace the steering box if necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 10, 2016.
