2008 Itasca Navion recalls
Recall 10V-470: Seat Belts
Problem: Winnebago is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2011 winnebago view and itasca navion 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.
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.
Fix: Winnebago will add additional seat belt anchorages free of charge. The safety recall began on november 12, 2010. Owners may contact winnebago at 1-800-537-1885.
Recall 08V-216: Engine and Engine Cooling
Problem: Winnebago is recalling 114 my 2008 view, my 2009 era, and my 2008 itasca navion class c motor homes built on sprinter chassis and equipped with 3.0l diesel engines. The crankshaft sensor in certain diesel engines could fail due to separation of bond wires from the lead frame in the sensor.
Risk: This results in an interruption in the electrical connection in the chip housing of the sensor. When this happens, affected vehicles may lose power. This could result in the vehicle becoming immediately inoperable increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Sprinter is handling the remedy for this campaign (Please see 07v594). Dealers will replace the crankshaft sensor free of charge. Owners may contact sprinter at 1-800-992-1997 or winnebago at 1-641-585-3535.
Recall 07V-445: Equipment
Problem: On certain motor homes equipped with with a 3.2 qd cummins onan generator, the generator's internal controller may fail; however, the electrical circuits would remain energized. Included in these circuits is the electronic preheated element which aids cold starts at ambient temperatures below 0 degrees celsius. In normal operation, this circuit is energized no longer than 120 seconds at 30 celsius. If the circuit remains energized beyond the designed period, the preheated element can over heat.
Risk: If the element over heats, a fire in the air intake system could occur.
Fix: Winnebago is working with cummins to replace the generators free of charge (Please see 07e076). Owners may contact cummins at 812-377-3713 or winnebago at 641-585-3535.
