Thor puts a 2nd alternator under the hood and a flange in front of it. This flange rubs against the radiator hose causing it to break. The coolant caused leaked out and the engine overheated and quit. Thor has acknowledged this problem, but Thor had no recall notice and will not cover the engine under warranty. This could have been a safety issue by starting an engine fire and having the vehicle stop in the middle of a state highway.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2022: 1 complaints · 2023: 2 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
