What was wrong

Defect

Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain model year 2017 Quantum RQ29 motorhomes manufactured June 27, 2016, to September 29, 2016. The affected vehicles may be missing a mid-ship marker light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Systems (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Risk

If the mid-ship marker light is missing, other drivers can mistake the length of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

TMC will notify owners, and dealers will install a mid-ship marker light if it is missing, free of charge. The recall began on January 25, 2017. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-500-1020. TMC's number for this recall is RC000124.
