15- Lights And Instruments#2024578
861 units affected
Issue: On certain motorhomes, the front turn signal lights may be too small. As a result, the turn signals could be difficult to see, and the motorhomes may not meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations. Safety Risk: Turn signals that are difficult to see could cause a person not to recognize when a driver intends to turn or change lanes. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Winnebago will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to replace the front turn signal lights.
- Seats And Restraints#2023369
57 units affected
Issue: On certain motorhomes, the bolts that secure the driver and front passenger seat belt buckles may not have been properly tightened. As a result, the seat belts could loosen or detach in a crash. Safety Risk: A seat belt that detaches in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Winnebago will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to inspect the bolts for the front seat belts, and tighten them if necessary.
- Electrical#2019572
16 units affected
Issue: On certain motorhomes, an electrical connector may have been incorrectly installed directly on the floor. If the floor gets wet under this connector while the motorhome has power, there could be a risk of a short circuit. Safety Risk: A short circuit could increase the risk of fire. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to install a stand-off bracket between the floor and the electrical connector.
- Electrical#2016452
158 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the 120-volt connections associated with the automatic transfer switch (ATS) may not have been torqued correctly during vehicle assembly. This could result in loose connections, which could create a high resistance which could overheat and cause a fire, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will verify and ensure proper torque of all the ATS connections.
- Accessories#2016020
29 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the electric step could extend out from the stowed position while the vehicle is being operated. If this occurs, the steps could potentially hit a person or a vehicle which would increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the terminal connections at the step switch.
- Powertrain#2015502
9 units affected
Certain motorhomes built on Ford F-53 and F-59 chassis may have been built with an incorrect shift cable bracket. This could allow the transmission to be shifted into reverse without the brakes being applied, which could increase the risk of unintended vehicle movement, potentially resulting in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Ford authorized service centers will replace and adjust the shift cable bracket.
- Other#2015398
244 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the entrance door deadbolt retaining plate may not have been tightened properly. This could allow the deadbolt to disconnect and extend beyond the door lock assembly making the door inoperable. In the event of an accident or a fire, the occupants of the vehicle could be trapped inside increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and tighten the deadbolt retaining plate as necessary.
- Accessories#2014356
4 units affected
On certain motorhomes, a damper plate may be missing on the roof air conditioner inside shroud. The damper plate is designed to prevent air flow from the air conditioner from disrupting the propane fuelled range flame. A missing damper could allow airflow from the air conditioner to extinguish the flame. If the range flame goes out, propane could continue to flow and ignite, resulting in a fire and/or explosion, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Corerction: Dealers will install a damper.
- Label#2013252
8 units affected
On certain vehicles, the Tire Pressure Information Label contains incorrect front and rear tire pressure rating and wheel size information. The correct front tire pressure rating is 95 psi and the rear tire pressure rating is 100 psi. Wheel rim size should be 19.5X6.00 for all wheels. Incorrect tire label and/or rim information may lead to under-inflation of tires and could affect vehicle stability, resulting in a loss of control. A loss of control may result in a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Registered owners will be sent updated labels and instructions on how to correctly affix them.
- Other#2013137
29 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the electrical motor for the awning could become damaged, allowing the awning to unfurl unexpectedly. As a result, the awning could strike another vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the awning motor.
- Other#2012067
255 units affected
On certain motorhomes, the cable for the transmission range indicator "PRND321" on the instrument cluster may be damaged by a sharp edge on the shift lever arm. If the indicator cable is cut, the indicator will remain in the "1" position (first gear) regardless of what gear is actually selected. With no gear indication, the operator may inadvertently select an incorrect gear, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Ford dealers will replace the transmission selector arm and indicator assembly.
- Accessories#2010368
906 units affected
Certain refrigerators used in Recreational Vehicles (RVs) contain either a sensing algorithm or a thermal switch to interrupt power when it detects high temperatures that could lead to a fire. An insufficient response time can result in the power not being shut-off in sufficient time to prevent a fire, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a thermocouple with a faster response time for all refrigerators with a sensing algorithm or a thermal switch.
- Electrical#2010292
3 units affected
Certain vehicles were built with an improperly postioned power cable for the power slideout room that may make contact with the driveshaft when the slideout is retracted. If this cable makes contact with the driveshaft, it could wear the protective jacket and insulation off the cable exposing the conductors to the driveshaft and energizing the chassis, which could result in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a driveshaft closeout panel between the chassis frame rails to protect and support the wire harness.
- Electrical#2010069
7 units affected
On certain motorhomes, wiring from an incomplete 120-volt circuit may become energized. A connector at the end of this circuit is not covered, leaving an opening that someone could make contact with. This could cause a risk of electrocution, which may result in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install the missing conductors and receptacle.
- Other#2009257
48 units affected
Certain motorhomes may be missing a stove partition designed to isolate the furnace return air. Should this be the case, and if the furnace is operated at the same time as the stove, the stove flame may go out while propane gas continues to flow. A propane gas leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire or an explosion, which could cause property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a stove partition.
