2007 Winnebago Journey DL recalls

Recall 10V-525: Equipment

Reported Oct 26, 2010 · 18,461 vehicles affected · WINNEBAGO INDUSTRIES, INC.

Problem: Winnebago is recalling certain recreational vehicles equipped with 1200-series norcold refrigerators. The population of refrigerators being addressed contains either a sensing algorithm or thermal switch to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected in order to prevent a potential fire. The response times of the sensor algorithm and thermal switch devices to stop power are not sufficient.

Risk: The sensing algorithm or thermal switch installed to shut off power to the refrigerator when high temperatures are detected due to a possible hydrogen gas leak may not shut off in sufficient time to prevent a fire.

Fix: Winnebago is working with norcold to identify and notify any affected owners. Owners will be instructed to contact norcold dealers to receive the remedy free of charge. Please see norcold's defect report 10e-049 for additional information. The recall began during december 2010. Owners may contact norcold at 1-800-767-9101 or winnebago at 1-641-585-3535.

Structure · at 32,500 miles · reported Jul 17, 2012
After arriving home from a 3-hour drive on federal interstate I-10, we discovered that the fiberglass lower rear panel was gone. The 9 FT wide x 2.5 FT tall panel had separated from the attachment points. It appears that the adhesive between the panel and the chassis supports failed. No other motorists notified us that the panel was gone/missing. If this problem occurs in traffic, a potential major traffic accident could occur from this large panel impacting a passenger car or similar at freeway speeds. Photos are available.
