What's wrong?
The LP tank support tubes on the 2024-2025 Thor Motor Coach Indigo and Luminate are welded mounting tubes located in front of the rear axle. They hold the propane tank against the chassis so it stays in place while the motor coach is driven, parked, and serviced. The tank mount depends on the tube length and weld strength to carry the tank without shifting.
On affected motor coaches, the support tube is too short and the chassis weld is not strong enough. That weak mounting point can fracture under normal vehicle movement and road vibration. If the weld breaks, the LP tank can separate from its mount instead of staying secured to the chassis.
There is no warning sign before failure. Owners should treat a loose, shifted, or separated LP tank as a failed mount, not as normal movement.
