    SUMMARY:

    Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Hurricane and Windsport motor homes manufactured January 30, 2013, to March 6, 2015.

    TMC will notify owners, and dealers will install a heat shield to prevent heat build-up in the storage compartment. The recall began on April 20, 2016. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000112. 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 Home | Safercar -- National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

From what I read, it is only the 34J models that are affected. Of course, they may have just used the 34J as the example but that is what I read.
