Recall repairs are free. Your dealer fixes them whether or not you bought the car there - check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if yours is done. What to do
- The problem
- Allied Recreation Group, Inc. (ARG) is recalling certain model year 2016 Fleetwood Flair, Storm, Terra SE, Jamboree Sport, Tioga Montara, Tioga Ranger, Holiday Rambler Admiral, and Monaco Trek vehicles. The affected vehicles may have been improperly manufactured with a vertical propane gas tank regulator, instead of the horizontal gas tank regulator required. Use of the incorrect regulator can allow moisture to build up in the regulator, possibly resulting in improper operation.
- The risk
- If the regulator fails to operate properly, it can cause a propane gas leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
- The fix
- ARG will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the motorhomes and replace the regulator, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 14, 2015. Owners may contact ARG customer service at 1-800-509-3417. ARG's number for this recall is 150708ARG.

3 complaints about the 2016 Fleetwood Storm
Newest first, as filed with NHTSA by owners.
The contact owns a 2016 Fleetwood Storm built on a 2016 Ford Motorhome chassis. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the floorboard was separated from the RV. As a result of the failure, the contact could see the road below. The RV was taken to an independent mechanic, who was unable to provide a specific diagnosis but determined that the floorboard had become detached from the RV. The RV was repaired, but the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 3,000.
The wall and floor have repeatedly separated from the chassis to the point light shows between the wall and floor and the dash moves up and down uncontrollably. Fleetwood did attempt to repair the problem under warranty, but the fix was inadequate, and the problem continues to surface. As of now the visible wall separation extends from the passenger-side front end to behind the door and may go much further back and I am concerned that the body may completely separate from the chassis when in transit.
