Summary:
Winnebago is recalling a model year 2013 Winnebago and 2013 Itasca motor home built on a Ford F-53 chassis. The steering gear bracket may have been secured with nuts that may damage the bolts due to an incompatibility between the installation torque and the nut finish. |
||
|
Consequence:
The bolts may fracture, leading to separation of the steering gear and thus a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. |
||
|
Remedy:
These vehicles have been repaired prior to being sold, therefore an owner notification notice will not be issued. Consumers may contact Winnebago Industries owner relations at 1-641-585-6939. |
