• An NHTSA campaign number such as 21V523000 has a two digit year, a letter for the type, and a sequence.
• The remedy text on this site is quoted from the official notice. This site never paraphrases repair instructions.
• Canadian notices are separate records with their own IDs and are never merged into U.S. campaigns.
• This site currently links 800 U.S. campaigns and 293 Canadian notices to the RV families it covers.

The campaign number

Take 21V523000. The first two digits, 21, are the year the campaign was opened. The letter says what kind of product the recall covers: V for a vehicle, E for equipment, T for a tire, C for a child seat. The rest, 523000, is the sequence number NHTSA assigned. Use the full number when you search on NHTSA's own site or call a dealer.

The manufacturer also assigns its own campaign number. It is shown as a separate field and is the number a dealer often uses.

Two dates that are easy to confuse

The report received date is the day the manufacturer's defect report reached NHTSA. The owner notification date is when the manufacturer sent letters to owners. They are usually different, and either can be weeks after the defect was found. This site groups campaigns by the report received date and shows both dates when the record has them.

The remedy

The remedy is what the manufacturer says it will do at no charge, such as inspect or replace a part. On this site the remedy text is quoted from the official notice, marked as a quote, and linked to the source. This site does not paraphrase repair instructions, because a small change in wording can change what is safe to do. Follow the official notice and your dealer.

Own, inherited and equipment labels

• Own means the recall was filed under the RV brand's name for that model year.
• Inherited from chassis means the coach is mapped to a chassis in our reference table (reference/chassis.csv) from a recall notice, and the chassis maker filed the recall for the same model year. The defect is in the chassis, not necessarily the coach body.
• Equipment means an equipment recall linked to the RV by a reviewed rule, for example a part fitted to many trailers.

Of the 800 campaigns in this report, 693 are own, 106 are inherited and 1 is equipment.

Canadian notices

Transport Canada publishes its own recall notices with their own numbers. We show them next to U.S. records for the same family but never merge them. A U.S. campaign and a Canadian notice about the same defect stay as two records.

Complaints

Complaints come from owners and are unverified. NHTSA does not confirm them. This site counts and quotes them with personal details removed. It gives no rate per unit sold and no score, because the sales counts needed for a fair rate are not available.

Method and limits

• Data comes from NHTSA flat files released September 19, 2026 (2026-09-19) and from the Transport Canada recall database.
• Matching a record to an RV family uses a reviewed alias list, so a small number of records may be missed or mis-assigned. Use the correction link on any page to report one.
• The absence of a recall in this dataset does not establish that a vehicle is safe.

• Across 800 linked campaigns, the component category listed most often is "Equipment: Recreational Vehicle/Trailer" with 169 campaigns.
• The next categories are "Electrical System" (136) and "Structure" (88).
• The table covers 49 RV families and 529 model-year pages for 2015 to 2026.
• NHTSA data release used: 2026-09-19 (September 19, 2026).

How to read the table

NHTSA assigns each campaign one or more component categories chosen by the manufacturer and NHTSA staff. A campaign that lists two categories is counted once in each row, so the rows add up to more than the number of campaigns. The last column shows in how many of the model years in the window at least one campaign lists that category. It is a count of years, not of vehicles.

Top component categories

What the categories mean

The labels are NHTSA's own. The "Equipment" categories mark recalls of parts or accessories, such as appliances or trailer equipment, and are not vehicle systems. A category name says which system a notice files the defect under. It does not say how serious the defect is. For what a specific defect is and how it is remedied, read the official notice on the campaign page.

Method and limits

• Campaigns are distinct NHTSA campaign numbers that list a launch model year, grouped by the year the report was received.
• Complaints are not part of this table. Complaints are unverified consumer reports and are shown separately on model-year pages.
• Counts are records, not rates per unit sold. The site gives no scores.
• The absence of a recall in this dataset does not establish that a vehicle is safe.

• This report counts 800 distinct NHTSA recall campaigns that list at least one model year from 2015 to 2026 for the 49 RV families this site covers.
• The records span 529 model-year pages across 10 makes.
• Of those campaigns, 693 were filed under an RV brand's own name, 106 are inherited from a chassis maker and 1 is an equipment recall linked by a reviewed rule.
• NHTSA data release used: 2026-09-19 (September 19, 2026).

What is counted

Each number below counts distinct NHTSA campaigns, not vehicles and not repairs. A campaign is counted when it lists a model year in the window 2015 to 2026. The year used for grouping is the year the manufacturer's report was received by NHTSA, not the year the owner letter went out.

A campaign can be counted under more than one parent if it lists brands of both. For that reason the parent rows can add up to more than the 800 total.

Campaigns by parent company

What "inherited" and "equipment" mean

Own means the recall was filed under the RV brand's own name for that model year.

Inherited means the coach is mapped to a chassis in our reference table from a recall notice, and the chassis maker filed the recall for the same model year. The recall is about the chassis, such as a Ford, Freightliner or Spartan platform, not about the coach body. The inherited share is the inherited campaigns divided by that parent's campaigns.

Equipment means a recall of a part or accessory that we link to an RV by a reviewed rule. The equipment share is the equipment campaigns divided by that parent's campaigns.

Parent company notes

The parent groupings follow the ownership research in our parents notes. Terex is treated as the current parent of the former REV Group RV brands. That rests on trade press reports, not on a filing we could open, so the confidence is medium. Other ownership statements on this site carry their own confidence labels on the owner pages.

Method and limits

• The counts come from NHTSA flat files released September 19, 2026 (2026-09-19), matched to launch families by a reviewed alias list.
• Counts are records, not rates. They are not divided by units sold, and the site gives no scores or rankings of quality.
• A parent with more brands or more model years will have more campaigns, so the table does not compare how safe any parent's vehicles are.
• Canadian notices are separate records with their own IDs and are not part of these counts.
• The absence of a recall in this dataset does not establish that a vehicle is safe.
