Defect and consequence
Defect: Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2020 Tellaro 20AT and Sequence 20A motorhomes. The dinette/booth seat belt reinforcing brackets may be missing. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.".
Why it matters: In the event of a crash, without the seat belt reinforcing brackets, the seat belt anchorages could fail, increasing the risk of injury to those seat occupants.
Remedy
TMC will notify owners, and dealers will install the missing brackets, free of charge. The recall began May 19, 2020. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000187.
