Plain-English summary

Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling certain 2018-2019 Winnebago Intent vehicles. The recall addresses a defect where the cabinet mirror located over the driver's seat may not be properly secured. This allows the mirror to fall while the vehicle is moving.

If the mirror falls, it can distract the driver, which increases the risk of a crash. The corrective action involves dealers installing screws to secure the mirror to the overhead cabinet at no charge to the owner. Winnebago will notify owners, though a specific notification schedule has not yet been provided.

Owners may contact Winnebago customer service at 1-641-585-6939 or 1-800-537-1885. Additionally, owners may contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.safercar.gov for more information.
