Itasca / Winnebago recall: Equipment

What is wrong

Winnebago is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Winnebago and Itasca motor homes. A cutting machine may have scored the copper propane tubing resulting in unknown long-term reliability.

What could happen

If the copper tubing fails, propane can escape leading to a fire or explosion which can result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

The fix

Winnebago will notify owners, and dealers will replace the copper tubing, free of charge. The recall began on September 6, 2012. Owners may contact Winnebago Industries Owner Relations at 1-641-585-6939.
