Owner report 11429614 · 2021-08-18 (August 18, 2021)
We were traveling from Ashland NE to Argyle TX (heading home) on I 35 South in Oklahoma when both of the rear passenger side tires exploded and shredded. At the time, I was passing a semi-truck and I was in the left lane. I could hardly control the RV but got lucky and managed to maneuver it to the shoulder without rolling or causing an accident with other vehicles, and we managed to walk away unscathed (at least physically).

24V733000 · Exterior Lighting:Turn Signal
Reported: 2024-10-01 (October 1, 2024)
Winnebago Industries, Inc. (Winnebago) is recalling certain 2013-2017 Tour, 2013-2018 Journey, 2014-2022 Forza, 2015-2016 Brave, 2015-2019 Grand Tour, 2015-2021 Vista, 2016-2018 Adventurer, Sightseer, 2016-2021 Commercial Vehicle, 2018-2021 Intent, Sunstar, 2018-2020 Horizon, Itasca 2013-2017 Ellipse, Meridian, 2014-2017 Solei, 2015-2016 Tribute, 2015-2018 Sunstar, 2016-2018 Suncruiser, and Sunova motorhomes. The turn signals may have a smaller than required luminous lens area. As such these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) Number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Consequence: A small lens can make it difficult for other drivers to see the turn signal, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the turn signals, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 17, 2026. Owners may contact Winnebago Customer Care at 1-800-537-1885. Winnebago's number for this recall is 189.
