What's wrong?
The freshwater tank on these 2023 Alliance Rv Avenue and Paradigm fifth wheels stores drinking water for the plumbing system while the trailer is being used or towed. A steel support cradle holds that tank in place under the body, so the tank stays seated when water weight and road movement load the mounts.
On affected trailers, the fresh tank support cradle was mounted in a way that does not hold the tank securely enough. As the trailer moves, the tank can come free from its mounted location. If that happens, the freshwater tank can drop from the underbelly and detach from the vehicle.
The warning sign is visible sagging or a dropped section of the underbelly where the tank has fallen from its mount. If you see that, the tank support has already failed and the trailer needs dealer repair.
Who's affected?
Both model lines use the same fresh tank support cradle tied to the storage tank issue.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific RV is included in this recall.
What's the safety risk?
If the freshwater tank detaches, it can fall from the vehicle and become a road hazard, increasing crash risk. A visibly dropped underbelly is the warning sign to stop using the trailer and call the dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Alliance Rv dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2023 Alliance Rv Avenue or Paradigm is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Alliance Rv dealer to schedule the free freshwater-tank inspection and remounting that secures the incorrectly installed tank.
- Bring the recall notice if Alliance Rv mailed one. If not, reference recall number 25V318 when you call.
- Ask the dealer about safe towing before moving the fifth wheel to the appointment.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Alliance Rv technician inspects how the freshwater tank is mounted and remounts it so the tank is secured to the fifth wheel. The recall repair is free, including parts and labor. Alliance Rv has a general reimbursement plan on file for documented out-of-pocket repairs paid before the recall notice. Bring related repair paperwork to the service desk and ask how to submit it under that plan.
