2006 Winnebago Minnie Winnie recalls
Recall 08V-419: Equipment Adaptive/Mobility
Problem: Winnebago is recalling 31 my 2006-2008 itasca cambria, horizon, winnebago access, adventurer, journey, minnie winnie, signtseer, tour, vectra, and voyage motor homes equipped with ricon platform style wheelchair lifts. These lifts fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 403, "platform lift systems for motor vehicles." the anti-stow interlock may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user. The pressure sensing switch that detects the presence of weight on the platform was not adjusted to the necessary sensitivity level. The lift could stow even though someone or something is still on the lift.
Risk: A lift occupant can be injured should the lift begin to stow unintentionally.
Fix: Winnebago is working with ricon to correct the wheelchair lifts (Please see 07e097). Owners may contact ricon at 1-800-322-2884 or winnebago at 1-641-585-3535.
Recall 08V-227: Exterior Lighting
Problem: Winnebago is recalling 35 my 2006-2008 aspect, access, chalet, outlook, and minnie winnie motor homes, and my 2007-2008 itasca cambria motor homes. A poor ground may develop on the daytime running light module that would allow the module to overheat.
Risk: This could have the potential to ignite, possibly resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage.
Fix: Dealers will replace the daytime running light module ground wire. The recall began on may 30, 2008. Owners may contact winnebago at 1-641-585-3535.

These motor homes fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 404, "platform lift installations in motor vehicles." the threshold warning system may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user in a certain spot within the defined threshold area.
