Some Jayco motorhomes are being recalled – bad seat weld

By Russ and Tiña De Maris

A bum weld could leave you on your bum – that’s why these Jayco motorhomes are being recalled. Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Entegra Anthem, Aspire, Cornerstone, and Reatta XL motorhomes. The pedestal mounting plate on the driver’s seat may be improperly welded, causing the plate to separate and the seat assembly to loosen or detach. As such, these seat assemblies fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 207, “Seating Systems” and number 210, “Seat belt assembly anchorages.” A loose or detached seat assembly increases the risk of injury. Potentially 148 RVs are affected by this recall.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect for a missing weld and replace the pedestal as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed March 1, 2024. Owners may contact Jayco customer service at 1-800-283-8267. Jayco’s number for this recall is 9903602.

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.

Thanks again for another heads(?) up. Sounds like it could be a real pain-in-the-butt, were it to fall apart.

Thank you, Russ and Tina! Yikes! Anthems and Cornerstones!?! Those are some high-end MHs. Has the Thor effect reached Entegra? 😉 Guess we’ll see if a trend emerges. Safe travels! 🙂
