An American Eagle motorhome recall has hit the streets. REV Recreation Group (REV) is recalling certain 2016-2023 American Coach American Eagle motorhomes. Turbulence may loosen or break the rear air deflector mounting bracket hardware. Loose or broken mounting bracket hardware can allow the deflector to detach from the vehicle, becoming a road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash. Some 259 rigs may be affected.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the attachment hardware bracket and fasteners, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed February 3, 2024. REV’s number for this recall is 231205REV.

Recall notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

Russ and Tiña went from childhood tent camping to RVing in the 1980s when the ground got too hard. They've been tutored in the ways of RVing (and RV repair) by a series of rigs, from truck campers, to a fifth-wheel, and several travel trailers. In addition to writing scores of articles on RVing topics, they've also taught college classes for folks new to RVing. They authored the book, RV Boondocking Basics.

Thank you, Russ and Tina! 2016 American Eagles recalled?!? We had a 2016 American Revolution. This makes me thankful that we could not afford a 2016 American Eagle and had to settle for the Revolution. 🙂
