Issue: On certain motorhomes, the front turn signal lights may be too small. As a result, the turn signals could be difficult to see, and the motorhomes may not meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations. Safety Risk: Turn signals that are difficult to see could cause a person not to recognize when a driver intends to turn or change lanes. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Winnebago will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to replace the front turn signal lights.
Issue: Certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner chassis could have a problem with the rear-mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM). This could cause the tail lights not to work properly. Note: This recall replaces FL-856 (Transport Canada recall 2020-323). Motorhomes that were repaired under that recall also require this repair. Safety Risk: Brake lights or turn signals that do not work could cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking or intends to turn. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Winnebago will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.

Issue: Certain motorhomes built on a Freightliner XBS chassis could have a problem with the rear-mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM). This could cause the tail lights not to work properly. Safety Risk: Brake lights or turn signals that do not work could cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking or intends to turn. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to a DTNA authorized service facility to inspect and repair the PDM as necessary.
Issue: On certain motorhomes equipped with V-Ride rear suspension, the mounting bolts for the rear axle may not be properly tightened. This could cause the track bar, which maintains the position of the rear axle, to detach. Safety Risk: A track bar that detaches could affect vehicle handling and stability, increasing the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Daimler Trucks of North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their motorhome to an authorized DTNA Service Facility to ensure the rear axle mounting bolts are properly tightened.
On certain motorhomes, a battery cable and hydraulic fluid line may not have been properly secured during vehicle assembly and could come into contact with either the driveshaft or exhaust. If this were to occur, it could lead to an electrical short and/or fire, which could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the battery cables and hydraulic lines to ensure they are properly routed and secured, and will repair as necessary.
