Problem: Tiffin Motorhomes is recalling certain model year 2010-2013 Allegro Bus motorcoaches, manufactured from March 2010, through September 2012 and equipped with a Cummins EPA 2010 ISL engine. Insufficient shielding between the exhaust pipe and floor may cause possible overheating of the floor above the engine compartment.

Recent 2010 Tiffin Allegro Bus complaints

Owner reports filed with NHTSA, as written (personal details removed). Complaints are not verified by NHTSA.

Exterior Lighting · at 36,125 miles · reported Feb 19, 2015
I received recall notice 14v-271. It requires an inline fuse to prevent possible fires. It does not address the issue which is water getting into the front and rear clearance lights and causing them to become inoperative. Which means the vehicle will be without the affective lights during operation. The failure is almost universally sure to occur.... Suggest that the manufacture replace the lights to assure compliance with federal, state and local laws.
