2011-2017 Renegade Rv Recall 17V034: Seat Belt Anchor

Recall 17V034 covers 884 2011-2017 Renegade Rv motorhomes with seat belt anchors that can detach. Repair is free at any franchised Renegade Rv dealer.

What's wrong?

The sofa seat belt anchorage in affected 2011-2017 Renegade Rv motor coaches is the hardware that holds the belt to the vehicle structure. It is supposed to transfer crash loads from the belt into the floor framing, so a belted passenger stays restrained while the coach moves or stops suddenly.

On these vehicles, some sofa seat belts were mounted directly to the floor during original production. The floor framing does not provide enough structural support for that attachment. In a crash, the anchorage hardware can pull out of the floor framing instead of holding the belt in place. The repair adds an attachment plate so the seat belt mounting hardware meets the required anchorage strength.

There is no warning sign before failure. The belt can look normal and latch normally because the problem is hidden in the floor attachment, not in the buckle or webbing you handle.

Who's affected?

The included model lines share the same seat-belt anchorage component, so scope turns on the exact build and VIN rather than the model family alone.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.

What's the safety risk?

In sudden braking or a crash, the seat belts can detach from the floor framing, increasing the risk of injury. There is no listed warning sign before this failure, so confirm your VIN and schedule the hardware and reinforcement repair promptly. Repair is free at any franchised Renegade Rv dealer.

What should I do?

1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2011-2017 Renegade Rv motorhome is included in this recall.
2. Contact a franchised Renegade Rv dealer to schedule the free seat-belt anchorage repair.
3. Ask the dealer to replace the seat belt mounting hardware and install reinforcement plating that secures the belt anchors to the floor framing.
4. Bring the recall notice if REV mailed one. If not, reference recall number 17V034 when you call.
5. Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Leave extra following distance and avoid hard braking where traffic allows.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Renegade Rv technician replaces the seat belt mounting hardware and installs reinforcement plating at the anchorage points. The replacement parts and labor are free under recall 17V034. If you already paid for qualified seat belt anchorage repairs before the owner notice, the general reimbursement plan covers eligible documented costs. Keep invoices, receipts, and repair paperwork together, then contact Renegade Rv customer service or ask the dealer service desk how to submit the claim.
