Lights And Instruments

Issue Description

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 Action & Repair

Winnebago will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to replace the front turn signal lights.

Steering

Issue Description

On certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner XBR chassis, a power steering hose may touch the power stud on the starter motor. This could cause a short circuit and may also cause a power steering fluid leak. This may result in loss of power steering assist.

Safety Risk

A power steering fluid leak in the presence of an electrical arc could create the risk of a fire. Additionally, a sudden loss of power assist could make the vehicle difficult to steer and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a DTNA authorized service facility to reroute the power steering hose to ensure it has proper clearance.

Brakes

Issue Description

On certain motorhomes equipped with an adjustable brake pedal, the brake lights could stay on when the brakes are released. If a vehicle is being towed, this could also cause the towed vehicle brakes to stay applied.

Safety Risk

If the brake lights stay on, a following driver may not recognize when the vehicle ahead is braking. Additionally, if the brakes of a towed vehicle stay applied, it could result in a loss of control. Both of these situations could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a DTNA authorized service facility to replace the torsion spring in the brake pedal assembly.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (accessories) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair
