- What is wrong
- Winnebago is recalling two model year 2008 access motor homes, manufactured on april 10, 2008, and july 23, 2008. Over time and with frequent use, the roll stop latches on the wheelchair lifts outer barrier may become bent or misaligned.

Equipment: recreational vehicle/trailer: lpg systems: furnace
- What is wrong
- Winnebago is recalling model year 2007-2008 access, aspect, sighteer and vista, model year 2007-2008 itasca impulse, cambria, sunova, and sunstar, model year 2009-2010 winnebago access, sightseer and vista, model year 2009-2010 itasca impulse, sunova, and sunstar motor homes. These motor homes may have a missing stove partition that isolates the furnace air.
- Risk
- If the furnace is operated at the same time as the stove and partition is missing, the stove flame may go out and the propane gas will continue to flow, which has the potential to ignite resulting in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage.
- Remedy

Equipment adaptive/mobility
- What is wrong
- 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.
- Remedy
- 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.
