I hate the thought of a 180 mile round trip to have the dealer look a a couple of nuts and determine if they are tight.

I have the same issue with taking it back to the dealer. I contacted Thor (Jaime Rienks - customer service), and she told me to tighten the acorn nut at the base of the wiper arm. Exact instructions were, "Tighten it to 12-14 nm of torque (approximately 8.85-10.32 ft-lbs). Repeat for other wiper arm."
She explained that some of the motor homes were not torqued properly. Since it is impossible to determine which ones they did the recall notice on all of them. I have not noticed a problem with mine and have checked since reading about it on the forums. I'm going to buy a torque wrench and tighten mine anyway...good excuse to buy a new tool.
