2020 Winnebago Adventurer recalls

Recall 26V-177: Exterior Lighting

Reported Mar 23, 2026 · 1,446 vehicles affected · Winnebago Industries, Inc.

Problem: Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2017 Brave, 2019 Itasca Sunova, 2019-2022 Adventurer, and 2022 Sunstar motorhomes. The front turn signals may have a smaller than required luminous lens area. As such these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) Number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Risk: A small lens can make it difficult for other drivers to see the turn signal, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Dealers will replace the turn signals, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 8, 2026. Owners may contact Winnebago Customer Care at 1-800-537-1885. Winnebago's number for this recall is 203.

Reported Jan 15, 2020 · 212 vehicles affected · Winnebago Industries, Inc

Problem: Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2017-2020 Itasca Vista, Sunstar, and Adventurer 35F motorhomes. An electrical connector was mounted directly on the floor instead of to a standoff backet as intended.

Risk: If the floor gets wet where the electrical connection is mounted, there is an increased risk of an electrical short and fire.

Fix: Winnebago will notify owners, and dealers will correctly mount the electrical connector onto a metal standoff bracket, free of charge. The recall began December 10, 2019.

Recent 2020 Winnebago Adventurer complaints

Owner reports filed with NHTSA, as written (personal details removed). Complaints are not verified by NHTSA.

Structure · reported Feb 25, 2025
The front grill fell off the vehicle while driving. I was actually in the process of bringing it to a service center to have the hood bracket reattached. I had also fell off and is currently subject of a recall (NHTSA campaign number 24v826000). I was able to retrieve the grill and on inspecting the brackets that hold the grill on, there was no adherent epoxy suggesting it failed to bond correctly (which was also the issue with the hood brackets).
