What's wrong?

The front suspension on a 2014-2016 Tiffin Breeze motorhome uses ball joints as pivot points between the steering and suspension parts. They let the wheels turn and move up and down while keeping the wheel assembly aligned with the chassis.

On affected Breeze motorhomes, the front suspension assemblies have loose ball joints. That looseness lets parts move in a way they were not designed to move, which puts extra stress on the joint. If a ball joint separates, the wheel assembly no longer follows steering input correctly. That is the path to loss of steering control described in recall 15V635.

There is no warning sign before failure. Do not rely on noise, vibration, or a dashboard warning light to tell you the joint is close to separating.

Who's affected?

Spans the 2014, 2015, and 2016 Breeze model years, all tied to the same front suspension component.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included in this recall.

What's the safety risk?

Loss of steering control increases the risk of a crash. If your Breeze is included, limit driving until the repair is handled and call a Tiffin dealer for instructions before moving the motorhome. There is no listed warning sign before loss of control. Repair will be free at any franchised Tiffin dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2014-2016 Tiffin Breeze is included in this recall.
  2. Call Tiffin customer service at 1-256-356-8661 to confirm current repair scheduling for recall number 15V635.
  3. Contact a franchised Tiffin dealer after Tiffin confirms scheduling, and ask about the free ball-joint installation correction that secures the loose front suspension ball joints.
  4. Bring the recall notice if Tiffin mailed one, or give the dealer recall number 15V635 when you call.
  5. Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Stop driving and call Tiffin if the steering feels loose or abnormal.

What happens at the repair

Tiffin's remedy says dealers will correct the ball joint installation where needed, free of charge. A Tiffin technician should inspect the affected front suspension ball joint installation and correct any looseness or installation issue covered by recall 15V635. The dealer repair will be free once available. Tiffin's notice says owner notification began on October 30, 2015. The source does not give a repair time, so ask the service desk how long the inspection and correction should take when you schedule service.
