What to do if your Thor Aria is recalled

  1. Confirm it’s yours. Recalls cover ranges of VINs, so check your VIN and confirm open recalls at NHTSA.gov.
  2. Heed any warning. A do-not-drive or park-outside recall applies until the repair is done.
  3. Call a Thor dealer with your VIN and book the repair. It’s free by law, whatever the vehicle’s age.
  4. Ask about a loaner or tow if parts are back-ordered or the vehicle isn’t safe to drive.
  5. Paid for the same fix already? Keep the receipt and ask Thor about reimbursement.
