Problem: Winnebago is recalling certain model year 2009-2013 model Era motorhomes, 2010-2013 Via and Itasca Reyo motorhomes, and 2011-2013 View and Itasca Navion motorhomes; manufactured November 13, 2007, through August 20, 2012. The proper fuses were not installed for the refrigerator circuits.

Recall 10V-470: Seat Belts

Reported Oct 5, 2010 · 2,496 vehicles affected · WINNEBAGO INDUSTRIES, INC.

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.

Engine and Engine Cooling · at 2,000 miles · reported Aug 29, 2013
6/20/2012- while driving on hwy 101 I heard a loud bang and our 2011 winnebago view 24j acted like we hit a large bump in the road. I thought it was a blow out. When I pulled over, I ran around to the passenger side to see what had happened. I could hear air leaking from the tires. A chp officer pulled up behind us to see if we were okay.
