My 2017 Thor Hurricane 35M actually had a sticker in the driver's compartment. Here's what it said:
NOTICE
The front suspension and steering system of this motorhome was factory aligned prior to it being dispatched to the dealership. The alignment is,however, greatly affected by the way the unit is loaded prior to travel. This loading includes how much cargo, water, and LP are carried as well as the distribution of said cargo. Thor Motor Coach advises to have the alignment checked in the fully loaded condition (the way you would normally load the unit to travel). Not having the alignment checked and reset may result in abnormal tire wear.
I paid to have the coach aligned after it was fully loaded and no adjustments were needed.
