What is wrong
Thor Motor Coach (TMC) is recalling certain 2020 Tellaro 20AT and Sequence 20A motorhomes. The dinette/booth seat belt reinforcing brackets may be missing. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
What can happen
In the event of a crash, without the seat belt reinforcing brackets, the seat belt anchorages could fail, increasing the risk of injury to those seat occupants.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
TMC will notify owners, and dealers will install the missing brackets, free of charge. The recall began May 19, 2020. Owners may contact TMC customer service at 1-877-855-2867. TMC's number for this recall is RC000187.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
