The defect

(Winnebago) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Winnebago Shell, 2021-2023 Winnebago Inspire, 2022-2023 Winnebago Vista, Adventurer, Forza, Journey and Itasca Sunstar motorhomes. The seat belt attachment may have been improperly tightened.

The risk
A loose seat belt attachment may not properly restrain the occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Dealers will inspect and tighten the seat belt attachment fasteners, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 24, 2023. Owners may contact Winnebago at 1-800-537-1885. Winnebago's number for this recall is 175.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
