The problem
Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Thor Aria motorhomes and 2017-2019 Thor Venetian motorhomes. The brake caliper mounting bolts on these vehicles may be insufficiently tightened, allowing the bolts to loosen.

The recall began September 4, 2018. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000159.
