What's wrong?
On the 2011-2012 Entegra Anthem, the front tires support the front of the motor home and carry their share of the coach, passengers, fluids, and cargo. A tire is designed to carry a rated load. When that load is exceeded, the sidewall and tread carry more weight and heat than they were built to handle.
In this recall, the problem comes from cargo distribution inside the storage area. Loading the storage area in the affected configuration puts too much weight on the front tires. The tires themselves are not described as the source of the problem; the issue is that the coach layout allows the front tires to be overloaded during normal owner use.
An owner is not given a clear warning before the tire is overloaded. There is no warning sign before failure. That is why the actual loaded weight and Entegra's recall repair matter more than a quick visual check.
Who's affected?
This is a single-model recall across 2 model years, with the tire component listed for both.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific motorhome.
What's the safety risk?
Overloading the front tires can cause tire failure and increase the risk of a crash. Keep loads within the vehicle's tire and weight limits, and schedule the recall work before taking long trips or carrying heavy loads. Repair will be free at any franchised Entegra dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2011-2012 Entegra Anthem is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Entegra dealer to confirm the free tire replacement, and wheel replacement on listed models, is open for your VIN.
- Reference recall number 12V072 when you call, and bring the owner notice if Entegra mailed one.
- Avoid overloading the front storage area until the tire and wheel load-capacity repair is complete.
- Call Entegra customer service at 1-800-945-4787 with questions about this recall.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Entegra technician replaces the front tires covered by recall 12V072. On some Anthem motor homes, the technician also replaces the wheels to provide additional load capacity. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Entegra listed the safety recall start date as March 7, 2012. The filing does not give a separate reimbursement program, so this section does not include reimbursement instructions. Contact an Entegra dealer and ask whether your VIN still needs the recall repair completed.
