Bulletin Summary
Thor Motor Coach (TMC) has been made aware of several incidents involving trailer hitch receivers installed on motorhomes, similar to yours. These issues were caused by the use of drop hitches and hitch extensions that placed higher-than-expected forces on the hitch receiver assembly. If you use your motorhome to tow, please follow the recommended instructions in your owner’s manual. THE USE OF DROP HITCHES AND/OR HITCH EXTENSIONS WHILE TOWING WILL PLACE LARGER STRESSES ON THE HITCH AND CAN LEAD TO FAILURE. TMC is requesting that you inspect your motorhome’s hitch receiver at your earliest convenience. Inspection instructions are enclosed with this letter. If you are unable or uncomfortable performing this inspection, contact your nearest TMC authorized dealer and they will inspect the trailer hitch for you. If any issues are found with your hitch or the mounting surfaces, please contact TMC Customer Service at 877-855-2867. TMC will coordinate and direct you to the nearest TMC authorized dealer for inspection and repair. The inspection and repair will be done at no expense to you.
About Technical Service Bulletins
A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
