Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Vista, Sunstar, and Adventurer motorhomes built on F53 chassis. The wiring may have been incorrectly routed, damaging the forward-facing camera wiring.
Damaged wiring can cause the camera to become inoperable, disabling active brake assist, lane keep assist, and auto high beams and increasing the risk of a crash which can cause injury.
As many as 443 RVs may be involved in this recall, which was issued August 15, 2024. The cause of the recall was that driver assist technology features were added in MY2023; however, the design did not allow for adequate clearance through the firewall, which resulted in incorrect harness routing.
Remedy
Dealers will reroute the wiring, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 11, 2024. Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-3535. Winnebago’s number for this recall is 187.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
