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.
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.
Winnebago will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to replace the front turn signal lights.
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.
A failure of this component (electrical) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
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.
A failure of this component (accessories) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

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

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

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.
