As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 15V653000.
Defect description
The RV Factory LLC (RV Factory) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Avion Azure motorhomes manufactured January 1, 2014, to September 24, 2015. The affected vehicles may have an improperly placed weld on the underfloor seat bracket used to mount the second row seats. As a result, the bracket may break in a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
Safety consequence
If the bracket breaks, the seats may move, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
RV Company will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brackets, free of charge. The recall began on October 24, 2015. Owners may contact RV Company customer service at 1-844-284-6678 ext 106.
