Winnebago Recalls 2013-2014 Motorhomes Due to Child Seat Tether Defect

Winnebago is recalling 2013-2014 Aspect and Itasca Cambria motorhomes because the child seat tether is mounted improperly, which may fail to protect occupants in a crash.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a safety component (child seat tether) that fails to protect occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Aspect and Itasca Cambria motorhomes (models 730C and 730J). These vehicles were manufactured between March 12, 2012, and May 31, 2013. The recall involves 164 vehicles.

The defect involves the child seat tether being mounted in an improper position. This placement prevents the child seat from being used properly. In the event of a crash, the tether will not allow the child seat to properly protect the occupant, which increases the risk of injury.

Winnebago will notify owners, and dealers will remove the child tether free of charge. The recall began on September 27, 2013. Owners may contact Winnebago at 1-800-537-1885 or [email protected]. Winnebago's campaign number is 130. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
