What this recall covers
- The defect
- Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Outlaw recreational vehicles, model 29J.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
- The risk
- If the bracket does not meet the strength requirements, the anchorage may fail in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- The fix
- TMC will notify owners, and dealers will install a new bracket, free of charge. The recall began on April 4, 2018. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000151.
