What's wrong?
The lug nuts on 2017-2020 Tiffin Wayfarer motorhomes are the large nuts that clamp each wheel to the wheel studs and hub. They have to be tightened to the proper torque specification, which means the right amount of tightening force. That clamping force keeps the wheel seated against the hub while the motorhome carries weight, turns, and brakes.
On affected Wayfarer motorhomes, the issue started during a prior recall repair. Service technicians installed the wheel liners but did not verify the lug nut torque as required by the work instructions. If the lug nuts are left under-tightened, normal road vibration and load can let the wheel loosen from the hub.
Owners can notice wheel wobble before the problem gets worse. That wobble is the warning sign that the wheel is no longer held as firmly as it should be.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Tiffin technician checks the wheel lugs from the earlier recall repair and tightens any lug nuts that are below specification. The inspection, tightening, parts, and labor are free under the recall. Because Tiffin has a general reimbursement plan on file, owners who already paid for related lug or wheel fastener work can ask Tiffin customer service about a documented claim. Bring repair orders, invoices, and proof of payment if you have them.
