The problem

Winnebago is recalling certain model year 2008 winnebago voyage and, itasca sunrise and, model year 2009-2011 winnebago adventurer and, itasca suncruiser motor homes because the dinette area seat belt restraints on those vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages." in a collision, the generated crash forces can cause the restraint's attachment to tear and allow the anchor to separate from the body of the vehicle.

The risk

If the restraint separates from the vehicle during a crash, the belt will not properly restrain the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury or death to the occupant.

Winnebago will notify ownes and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall began on december 17, 2010. Owners may contact winnebago at 1-800-537-1885.
