Winnebago is recalling 2017-2020 Itasca Vista, Sunstar, and Adventurer 35F motorhomes because an improperly mounted electrical connector poses a fire risk if the floor gets wet.

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 risk of electrical short and fire, which is a risk-of-harm product defect where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling certain 2017-2020 Itasca Vista, Sunstar, and Adventurer 35F motorhomes. The recall involves 638 vehicles where an electrical connector was mounted directly on the floor instead of to a standoff bracket as intended.

If the floor gets wet where the electrical connection is mounted, there is an increased risk of an electrical short and fire. No specific injuries or deaths are reported in the source text.

Winnebago will notify owners, and dealers will correctly mount the electrical connector onto a metal standoff bracket free of charge. The recall began December 10, 2019.
